Before you begin planning the technical details of your ISP, you need to address a range of basic business issues, including market research, financing, and setting up your basic business infrastructure. At a minimum, this includes obtaining necessary state and local licenses, setting up office services such as phone systems and accounting software, domain registration, and so on.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="text">
|
|
<a name="14580"> </a>
|
|
You should also have identified your potential customers, created a viable marketing and business plan, worked out a detailed budget, identified sources of technical assistance (your own employees or external services), and performed all the other tasks required to set up a successful business. The ISP industry is mature and highly competitive; you will not succeed unless you do your homework.

To provide Internet access, an ISP needs to sign up with a regional or national backbone provider and set up a local loop—that is, a physical connection between your location and the provider. In general, it's preferable to set up a 24 channel T1 or equivalent circuit for your first access switch.

An ISP also needs servers to handle its primary functions, including DNS, mail, Web servers (both HTTP and HTTPS), authentication, and news. Theoretically, you can do all this on just one machine, but at least four separate dedicated PCs is usually considered the minimum requirement.

One of the most basic decisions you must make is whether to own your own server facilities, rent them, or use a hybrid solution that permits users to connect to your service through other service providers as well as your own.

When a customer signs up with your ISP service, you need to provide an Account Setup solution as well as a customized version of Mozilla 1.4.1. An Account Setup solution helps users create ISP accounts and configures both system software and Mozilla 1.4.1 to enable Internet access. Configuration includes:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
System software (such as modem drivers, dialers, network protocol stack)
|
|

|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|

</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Internet access information (such as dialup access numbers, network settings, server settings)
|
|

|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
End-user-specific settings (such as ISP account name, user email address) for Mozilla

An Account Setup solution can take one of two forms:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
<b>Online Account Setup </b>prompts for customer information to create an ISP account (for example, contact information, preferred email account name, and payment plan). Account Setup then connects to an ISP account setup server and uploads the new account request. After processing the request, the server downloads the corresponding configuration to Account Setup, which uses it to automatically configure Internet access and other settings for the end user.

<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
<b>Manual Account Setup</b> requires the end user to enter the appropriate configuration information manually and initiate the connection process. Therefore, you need to provide step-by-step instructions for each platform that you support. For example, see the instructions outlined in <a href="setup_appx_cck.htm#15507" >Appendix B "Manual Account Setup</a>."

After you've set up your ISP business and your customers have set up your accounts, you need to provide ongoing troubleshooting and customer support.
