Overview
Internet access services have been delivered in many ways. As the environments have grown and matured, subscriber-orientated services have become more widely deployed, to the point where they provide the bulk of access to the Internet.
They have a variety of advantages, including:
• More dynamic and can be activated based on the content of a subscriber database
• Easier to automate
• More scalable
• Less dependent on the complex management of network elements
• More cost-effective to deploy
