N2  - The  telecommunication  industry  is  challenged by a significant  increase  in  the  complexity of information transfer due to a recent   information technology. As the result, telecommunication industry is facing a fundamental paradigm shift, with the convergence of  voice and  data  services  as  well  as  ever  expanding  technologies  to  its  users.  This   technological  movement  towards  a  convergence  of  telephony  and  computer  technologies, internet protocol  based  networks, and  wired   and  wireless  services  is  creating  areas  of   tremendous   opportunities. These networks often called next   generation   networks. Regulation  of  NGN  is  becoming  complex  than   ever.  Interconnection  is  the  main  key   challenging  area  and  legacy  practices  may  be  difficult  to  apply  as  it  is.  However,   application of LRIC-bottom up approached is ac cepted as the best suited considering many  circumstances. Application of LRIC- bottom- up approach helps understand cost drivers of  NGN  since  it  is  wide  discussion  it  may  cha nge.  Capability  of  providing  many  services   through one network lead to possible cost savings
