Problems here are easier than at switching centers:
1. Network terminations are less complex
2. … cannot be changed quickly (hardware,
no remote maintenance)

MIXes, Servers: technically easier; organizationally
w.r.t. confidence more problematic
Superposed sending: technically more expensive;
organizationally easier
