There is a non-trivial amount of WAN traffic flowing between ISPs' private interconnects. They do not touch NAPs at all. I wonder if this factor is taken into consideration when the 1/3 figure was generated. --jessica Date: Tue, 21 Oct 1997 17:27:42 PDT To: "Dorian R. Kim" <[email protected]> cc: "Paul G.

If we're talking about WAN traffic (not all IP traffic), then my estimate is about 70% going through an exchange point. Given MAE-East's central location, 33% seems to be not that far off the mark (definitely not orders of magnitude). 10% maybe. --vadim
