   what realistic outcomes can be expected with use of similar
   technology.

RFC Editor Note

Please put the following content in the Security Considerations: 

    This document does not propose any kind of protocol, practice or 
    standard.

    The experiment did show that an ISP can improve performance without 
 
    exposing fine-grained details about network structure, which might 
    otherwise be a security concern (see Section 3.1 (P4P Fine Grain)  
    and Section 3.2 (P4P Coarse Grain)).  Section 6 (Next Steps)  
    mentions that the opt-in architecture allows P2P users to maintain 
    privacy.

    Other security aspects were not considered in the experiment, which 
    focused on performance measurements.
