摘要：

The Internet consists of a series of private networks that interconnect at various points. Compared to their PSTN counterparts, network providers selling Internet access are in a better position to define which operational information they choose to reveal and which is to remain proprietry. However, the lack of reporting requirements comes into play when the economic relationships between Internet service providers (ISPs) come into play. Today, a number of indicators are already available that can be used as rough proxies for traffic flow to address this problem.
