North American Network Operators Group Date Prev | Date Next | Date Index | Thread Index | Author Index | Historical Re: Asian exchange points
Richard, There are several exchange points, but their functions tend to be slightly different from what is understood in the US. IXes such as SOX (Singapore), HKIX (Hong Kong), JPIX & NSP-IXP2 (Japan) and KIX & KINX (Korea) tend to be the more oft quoted IXes in Asia and are familiar in design and function. The others are either very much in-country exchanges offering neutral traffic exchange, or being run by one operator as a for profit transit service provider. (Consider in the latter cases the use of the word exchange as a "marketing" term... ;-) As others have pointed out, www.ep.net has the list of all the known ones. Hope this helps. philip -- At 12:43 11/05/2002 -0400, Richard A Steenbergen wrote: I know this isn't quote North American, but does anyone know what major exchange points exist in Asia? The largest one I've found so far is JPIX, which seems to move a fair amount of traffic (http://www.jpix.co.jp/en/techncal/traffic.html). Any other major ones? -- Richard A Steenbergen <[email protected]> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras PGP Key ID: 0x138EA177 (67 29 D7 BC E8 18 3E DA B2 46 B3 D8 14 36 FE B6)
