Do WAN fees apply to our Internet 2 (research) WAN connection?
Yes. For the purpose of calculating WAN use, both the commodity and Internet 2 connections are aggregated and reflected on your bill. When charging use for bandwidth that exceeds the given amount, is this restricted to certain types of traffic (MP3s, surfing, etc.), or will all bandwith usage be open to fees? In particular, I’m curious about e-mail traffic. As the owner of several e-mail boxes on campus, I get a LOT of e-mail. Most of it is legitimate, some is spam. Will this traffic on the WAN count against me when it comes time to bill? A: As the sponsor / owner of these systems, you are responsible for all WAN use, regardless of data type, that travels directly to or from your services to the WAN.
