Downsides or upsides? I'm trying to gauge whether they are worthy of investing equipment and hassle into for peering...From a research university perspective, the AADS NAP is a cool thing. It lets me do peering & various types of transit on a single circuit, & the availability of the route servers is nice. The full mesh of PVCs removes most of the layer 1-2 pain involved with firing up new interactions. The circuit to get there isn't cheap, but it seems worth it based on my experience.
Do you have any expectations with regards to service provided between various peers and the fact that some peers may (depending on your ATM QoS) step onto other peering partners?
