In this section, reference is made to the various levels of education. For this, use has been made of the ISCED classification scheme; more information about this scheme is here. For the purposes of this survey, 'University' level corresponds to ISCED levels 5 and 6; 'higher/further education' corresponds to ISCED level 4; 'secondary education' corresponds to ISCED levels 2 and 3 and 'primary education' to ISCED level 1.

1.4 Rough estimate of the methods by which the different types of institutions are connected to the network:
% connected to a PoP on the NREN directly or through a MAN managed by the NREN % connected to the NREN via a regional or metropolitan network managed by a third party % connected to the NREN via or behind another, connected institution % connected to the NREN in another way Total (should be 100%)

Others 60.0 32.0 8.0 0.0 100
1.5 Usable capacity of the connections between regional or metropolitan networks (either managed by the NREN or by a third party) and the NREN PoPs/routers (in case (some of) the clients are connected through such networks):
Capacity of the connection to the NREN PoP/router Number of connections to from the MAN to the PoPs/routers at this capacity
1 Gbit/s 4
   
   
   
1.6 Total number of connections to the NREN for each institutional category (note: this is the usable bandwidth)
Sites of: Total number of connections % connected through ISDN or lower % connected at up to 2 Mbit/s % connected at >2 Mb and =< 10 Mb/s % connected at > 10 Mb/s and =< 100 Mb/s % connected at > 100 and < 1000 Mb/s % connected at 1 Gb/s % connected at >1 Gb and < 10 Gb/s % connected at 10 Gb or above
