Abstract

The importance of the traffic control is a huge paradigm on the Internet. The AS (Autonomous Systems) by definition assumes no external control as priority; this could be an enormous problem when the traffic is asymmetric and the inbound is the higher portion. The problem is very often in networks hosted in South America countries; making the unbalancing inbound and outbound in a rate of more than 5:1 in some situations. In this article some Real South America networks will be analyzed, characterized including the specialist (e.g. Network Engineer) decision-making.
