Re: Do you block P2P ?

I think knowing the size of the schools would be a key item as well.  We have 2,500 resident students, and 11,000 total 
students (who could potentially be using wireless for P2P).  We don't block P2P.  We use the Packetshaper to limit P2P 
bandwidth, and the residence hall network overall during normal business hours.  We have received about 120 DMCA 
complaints per year over the last two years.

well, If we're comparing tallies (which I think is interesting), we've received 4 today and 215 this year.
