1. X and Y are the total bandwidth impinged on the WAN at each location
at A and B respectively. This includes bandwidth for data, speech, and
fax communications.
2. The derivation of X and Y at each location is shown in Table I of our
draft proposal presentation.
3. The link bandwidth calculations are shown in Table II of draft proposal
presentation. As shown above the main links AC and BC will have a
total bandwidth of X + Y. This is to take care of 100% alternate routing
in case of failure of either AC or BC links.
4. The cross link AB will have the larger of the two bandwidths X,Y.
5. We hope this will help you to understand the basis of derivation of
location and link bandwidths shown in our draft proposal presentation.

10. Summarising, our patented business tool
PVDTN can give your organisation the
following benefits.
Saves around 75% of your present
telecom costs.
Saves a substantial portion of your inter-
locational travelling costs and time.
Speeds up decision making.
Ensures 100% security of your internal
data bases.
Converts your MLO (multi-locational
organisation) into a VSO (virtual single
office).
Facilitates e-Commerce through a Public
server connected to the Internet and the
STS system

11. To convert your present voice and data
communications infrastructure into a PVDTN the
following steps are required.
The present LANs in each location will be
connected to the integrated PVDTN WAN through
routers and the channel splitter
A separate Internet LAN will be provided for
connecting the Public server (central location only)
and internet browsing nodes (at all locations).
The present voice / fax LAN through the existing
EPABX will continue to be used for communications
with organisation outsiders through the PSTN
(public switched telephone network)..
A separate voice / fax LAN will be set up at each
location and connected to the PVDTN WAN through
the VDPS (EPAX with E&M trunks) and the channel
splitter.
The present data WAN connectivity will be changed
to point-to-point leased lines in tri-node
configuration or with redundant links for alternate
routing..
There will be no disturbance to the existing network
till the PVDTN WAN / LAN is ready for a smooth
and quick cutover

16. Explanatory Notes on VPN Vulnerability
Slide 1 shows the topology of a typical ISP’s IP
network over which both Internet and VPN
services are laid out. This is the topology of
BSNL’s NIB – ii. Five cities are connected in a
full mesh connectivity to form the core IP back-
bone across India. Other cities are connected
through tri-node rings from the nodes of the
core network through the Tier-1 switch at
these nodes.
Slide 2 shows the architecture of each of these
nodes. The core router at the node sits on the
Tier 1 switch. From these switches are taken
the router connections for all the services –
VPN, Internet through Broadband and PSTN.
Thus you will note that there is continuous
physical connectivity between all the routers in
this IP network through the Tier 1 switch at
each IP Node (POP). Thus there is continuous
public domain access to the VPN routers.

17. 1. In any IP network, public or private, the WAN ports of all
routers in the network have continuous physical access
to each other. Thus while a router port is engaged in
communication with another in the network, a third port
can have simultaneous communications with it. If the IP
network is in the public domain (Internet) or has access
from the public domain (VPN), this third port could be
that of a hacker.
2. Thus while the various security protocols like IP Sec,
etc., can transport the data from one computer to
another securely, the LAN and the data bases residing
on it are exposed to public domain through a VPN
which has public domain access for reasons explained
in 1 above.
3. For WAN computing it is necessary to have a real
private network (at least for data communications).
Once this is there then inter-locational voice / fax can be
run over this network at marginal increase in the
operating cost, using the patented PVDTN system.
4. You should not expose your company data bases to the
public domain through Internet, ISDN back-up, or VPN
(which has public domain access) for reasons explained
earlier in 1 above.
5. The MPLS networks currently in vogue are another form
of VPN network and are subject to the comments in 1 to
4 above.

18. We do hope the above notes will
explain the security vulnerability of
your data bases when these are on
LANs connected to VPN (MPLS or
other wise) of any service provider.
If you wish to secure your data
bases 100% then use point-to-point
leased lines for inter- locational
computer connectivity.
