Abstract
The notion of a Broadband Virtual Private Network (BVPN) is not precise. In this paper, we argue that there are few, if any, characteristic features that define BVPNs and that the meaning of BVPN is highly context dependent. One cannot abstract a definition of a BVPN without taking into account the environment in which it is to be deployed.
