This document discusses ElasticISP, a concept for running an ISP on virtualized network functions in the cloud. The key points are: 1. ElasticISP aims to make it cheaper and faster to start an ISP by eliminating the need for physical networking hardware and deploying all functions like routing, firewalls, and LNS virtually in the cloud. 2. This allows an ISP to start for around $15k with minimal capital expenditure, and to easily scale network capacity and functions by adding more virtual instances as needed. 3. The document reviews ElasticISP concepts and architectures, including examples of logical and physical network designs using virtual routers, firewalls, and other functions deployed in public
