This is also the reason why we [collectively] are encouraging the creation of local exchange points outside of North America. The situation where two providers in The Phillipines (for example) have to back-haul traffic to the US to exchange bits is contributing to the overall problem. This needs to be fixed, but it certainly won't happen overnight, primarily due to the economic situation in the general locale. The possibility to correct this problem increases as deregulation happens. - paul At 02:08 PM 10/9/96 -0700, Michael Dillon wrote:
Isn't this the reason that MAE-East is at 30%, i.e. there are now many private interconnects between tier 1 NSP's to offload traffic from major exchanges like MAE-East? Not to mention that MAE-East is no longer the only major interconnect, a fact that seems to be taking some time to work it's way into net.mythology.
