The ACMA was broadly supportive saying: "End-to-end QoS is desirable industry-wide to properly deliver differentiated services to consumers. This is of particular importance for VoIP services marketed as a substitute for a traditional PSTN service. Optus felt that the work should be best left to the international standards bodies "Optus' view is that the issue of a QoS Standard for VoIP-to-VoIP calls is best left to international standards making bodies like IETF, ITV-T, ETSI & IEEE for resolution." Telstra, not surprisingly was even more strongly opposed. Any standard developed and implemented would reduce its role to being one of a provider of bit-pipes. It saw "a somewhat different technology evolution path for voice communications than the discussion paper suggests." Telstra's view was that carriers such as it would be primarily responsible for end-to-end QoS for VoIP. |
