Although this isn't specific to PortMasters, most of the people here are
ISPs, so here goes...:-)
Has anyone here heard of something called "AML Carrier"? We had been
introduced to the concept of running pairgain on the telco's end a while
back (someone on an ISP list mentioned it; it's basically the idea of a
telco essentially running multiple connections over a single physical
wire, or similar to that effect), and so we asked one of our telco's techs
about it. He said there was nothing like that, but they used something
similar called AML Carrier...can anyone here shed a little more light on
this? (The tech was basically clueless; he didn't know much beyond that.)
In a similar vein, we're looking to "educate" ourselves a little more
about the telco's end of things; are there any online resources or
literature that anyone would recommend regarding the life 'n times of
telcoland? :-)
