<P><FONT SIZE=2>Ever wonder about the differences between self-styled Internet backbone providers, Tier 1, Tier 2, and small time ISPs. You've heard of T1's, but what about T3, OC3, OC12, OC48, and OC192? Know what peering is? Variations on peering agreements, when and how they are formed? Balanced bandwidth? Where the feeds come in to Kansas City? What goes on behind the scenes? How to get a 100Mb feed for $1,000/month? </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Next week's meeting promises to be interesting. Hope to see you there. </FONT>
