Re: copyright infringement notices volume

[John Ladwig <John.Ladwig () CSU MNSCU EDU>]

I *had* meant to send my policy query only to Jeff but given the sudden but inevitable betrayal by my MUA, I'm 
interested in BT control policies, as some I've seen apply to bulk-transfer only, and others apply to control and 
discovery traffic.  Do you do full-block or radically-degraded service, etc?

It occurs to me that blocking BT via bulk-transfer policies without also limiting tracker and other discovery traffic 
may net one the worst of both worlds;users grumpy about not being able to transfer fiels, *and* DMCA notices due to 
uncontrolled tracker traffic.

I can take private responses if you don't feel comfortable putting specifics onto the list.

We use a combination of the IPS on our ASA and an Exinda.  A couple of years ago we had 80-100 notices at the end of a 
semester within 1-2 weeks.  We not make a best-effort attempt to block P2P file sharing.  We have not had a notice in 
over 2 years.

Care to share your policy settings?

We've migrated from  Packeteer to Procera, and I'm always looking for policy examples.

Thanks,
