Section 17 in The Quality Of Service Of Broadband Service Regulations, 2006
17. The Internet Service Provider could offer a good quality of service to the customers only if there is enough bandwidth in the Access segment, long distance segment and Overseas NAP segment. The Access segment is entirely managed and operated by the ISP. The broadband service can be provided through DSL, OFC, Cable TV Network, VSAT and Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) technologies. The national long distance segment is usually taken on lease from NLDOs/ UASPs and the Overseas NAP segment is generally provided by the ILDOs in the form of International Private Leased Circuit (IPLC) or Internet Leased Line (ILL). Therefore, enough bandwidth should be made available in, all the three segments for ensuring good quality of service.
