NOT having the interconnect hurts both companies. it hurts them asymmetrically though. or, that's the bet at any rate. regardless of whatever we all charge or pay that's measured in bits per second per month or whatever, the costs are all in terms of bit- miles. ultimately this means you can only peer with someone whose costs are similar to yours, almost regardless of the benefit they receive from peering with you. -- Paul Vixie La Honda, CA "Many NANOG members have been around <[email protected]> longer than most." --Jim Fleming pacbell!vixie!paul (An H.323 GateKeeper for the IPv8 Network)
