Network Management Practices
Last modified: July 12, 2024
Blocking
Stupp Fiber does not prevent end-user access to lawful content, applications, services, or non-harmful devices other than for reasonable network management.
Throttling
Stupp Fiber does not degrade or impair access to lawful Internet traffic other than for reasonable network management based on content, application, service, user, or use of a non-harmful device.
Affiliated Prioritization
Stupp Fiber does not prioritize or favor any traffic over other traffic, nor does it reserve bandwidth for any traffic. Stupp Fiber utilizes industry-standard peering and CDN practices to optimize connectivity for its customers and provide the best network experience. All Internet traffic is treated equally across our network.
Paid Prioritization
Stupp Fiber is not paid to prioritize or favor any traffic over other traffic, nor does it reserve bandwidth for any traffic in exchange for any consideration. Stupp Fiber utilizes industry-standard peering and CDN practices to optimize connectivity for its customers and provide the best network experience. All Internet traffic is treated equally across our network.
Congestion Management
Stupp Fiber uses reasonable network management practices consistent with industry standards to manage congestion in its fiber network.
Application-Specific Behavior
Carrier-Grade NAT (“CGN”) customers have their traffic modified using standard NAT practices for IP address conservation. This may cause some applications (e.g., specific VPNs) to fail. Stupp Fiber also rate-limits the Internet Control Message Protocol (“ICMP”) to protect its infrastructure.
Device Attachment Rules
Stupp Fiber requires devices to be compatible with IPv4 and its Wi-Fi.
Security
Stupp Fiber employs several practices to help prevent unwanted communications. Traffic volume and flows are monitored to manage capacity, detect malicious activity (e.g., DDoS or malware), and maintain regulatory compliance. Devices may be blocked if they are found to be participating in a DDoS attack or containing malware.
