Paul,
I have been thinking about a couple of issues regarding the
CIX Inter-exchange, and your comments would be appreciated:
(1) CIX is an association of ISPs. The CIX Inter-exchange puts
CIX in direct competition with its members (ISPs) for
customers. Is there a contradiction here?
(2) The CIX Inter-exchange has been used by some to bypass
peering policies. I am wondering if the CIX Inter-exchange
remains a viable option in the peering policy review.
(3) Today there are quite a few inter-exchanges in the Bay Area
that are superior (in terms of tech. and richness in connectivity)
than the CIX Interexchange. Is it fair to say that the
CIX Inter-exchange has fulfilled its historical mission and
is no longer needed?
