Network Reconfiguration Service (NRS) provides customers the ability
|
|
to reconfigure and manage their private line networks. Users such as
|
|
the NCR New England Data Center (see story, page 1) have used it for
|
|
disaster prevention and as a vehicle to offer better service to
|
|
their customers. NRS became effective in Vermont on January 27, 1993.
|
|
|
|
New Customized NETSAVERsm rates in Vermont (represented below) took

|
|
changes to the existing INFOPATH_ tariff effective January 1, 1993:
|
|
|
|
y an upgrade in speed for public dial access from 2,400 bps to 9,600
|
|
bps. There is no rate increase associated with this speed
|
|
enhancement.
|

|
|
y digital access to the network using DDS II. Formerly, only analog
|
|
