Ummm, not really... :) Actually, we've been faced with proposals to build services based on traffic classification, like e.g. "access our own webmail and all social networking sites, but not skype and video" or the capability to do exact metering based on net traffic time or volume, as well as being able to redirect the customer to various captive portals using HTTP redirect directly from the DPI box, and such. What I'm interested to know, is if someone has actually had some success with service offerings like these, or if it can be used to implement some other kind of value-added service in the network access provider field. I am fully aware of the net-neutrality implications this might have, but anyway, putting that aside for a moment, I would like to explore the possibilities that this technology brings in. thanks again, cl.
