So with your key peers you talk to them and find out, but I don't see how this is any different if you have a private interconnect. Just because you have say a STM-1 into another peer doesn't mean they have the STM-1 to carry the traffic out, given your example below I'd say its even more unlikely. > And would you expect your peer > with 400 Mbit/s total to have 400 reserved on his AMSIX port > for you when you see 300 at LINX and LINX goes down?
