RE: Quantifying the customer support and impact of cgnat for residential ipv4

[<aaron1 () gvtc com>]

I have >50,000 subscribers behind CGNat.  I would have to find out from the assigners group, the rate at which 
static/public IP address sales increased during our CGNat deployment over the last few years.  I do understand that we 
had an up-tick in public IP sales, but unsure of the rate at which it occurred… actually I may have to get in contact 
with the sales group for a question like that.

 

About problems (BTW, we use Juniper MX platform with service mic/mpc) … we had some significant issues initially… but 
things like…

 

*       Tuning the IGP to route to the closest CGNat boundary node, consistently
*       AMS interface source-ip load balancing 
*       APP
*       EIM
*       EIF

 

…help greatly in fixing issue with authentication on websites (webmail, banking) and also, vpn issues, and issues with 
gaming consoles, were largely resolved with those aforementioned enhancements
