That is the best advice I've seen yet in the entire thread. Buy-in
from EVERYONE in the organization about "the rules" is more important
and difficult than the application software used to get there. (If you
see a customer abusing bandwidth, what's your boss going to let you DO
about it? If you unplug your highest-profile customer's connection due
to a DDoS attack that's affecting the whole network, will your boss
back up that decision? Things like this or a formal process set up
specifically to come to a conclusion/decision/consensus QUICKLY are
very important to have ahead of time.)
