Multiple actors
High-level architecture requirement: accommodate competing and non-cooperative parties
see also “Tussle in Cyberspace”, by David D. Clark, John Wroclawski, Karen R. Sollins, Robert Braden
Division on previous slide just an example
but seems probable
some functions could be collapsed into one box or omitted in particular deployments

some may be competing with each other
ISPs, VSPs, mapping providers
limited mutual trust or limited ability to determine trustworthy parties
national politics (“Oceania is not talking to Eurasia”) ? need neutral parties
there may not be a political root organization
see ICANN difficulties
