Dear ziorufus,

Do you mean the "Informationsverbund Berlin-Bonn" (IVBB), the
communication network connecting German federal agencies in Berlin and
Bonn?

If so, what kind of information do you desire?

Regards,
Scriptor

I'm studying elliptic curves cryptosystems and I'd like to know il the
Berlin-Bonn network uses that system. I only need a page saying that
or I need an answer like: "No, they do not use that system".
Thnx

Hi ziorufus-ga:

I've found a couple of sites that mention the a specific device that
implements ECC being used in connection with IVBB.  Note that
encryption is by its nature a point-to-point protocol, so it seems in
this case that these devices (which appear to be a kind of ISDN modem)
are dependent on the IVBB for physical and transport layer support.

Would this information be satisfactory to you?

regards, mathtalk-ga
