Advantage of Colocation Bandwidth
Colocation is locating your servers in a colocation facility, also known as a carrier hotel. Advantages of this approach include ready availability of low cost bandwidth including 10 Mbps Ethernet, 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet options. These data centers also offer backup power, environmental control and high levels of security.

Advantages of Managed IP Services
Managed IP is a WAN or Wide Area Network service that is provided and managed by a competitive carrier that owns and operates its own IP network. A managed IP provider ensures that you have the bandwidth and connectivity you need, without having to manage the WAN yourself.

What does flooding mean?
Flooding is a Ethernet process whereby switches that do not know the destination for data packets they receive send that data to all ports and wait for a reply to discover the actual address.

How does Spanning Tree Protocol work?
STP or Spanning Tree Protocol is a technique used by Ethernet switches to ensure that there is one and only one physical path from source to destination. This is done to prevent forwarding loops.

Will Carriers "Light Buildings"?
Some will if their closest point of presence (POP) is within a mile or so of your location. The farther away you are, the higher the bandwidth commitment needs to be in order to justify the carrier's construction costs.
