Or peer with HE and buy transit from Cogent (or someone on Cogent's friendly list) - this is where I think their strategy is going to go after a while with a lot of folks (if they have the option - that's the key). HE will peer with anyone I believe - Cogent has much more stringent "tier1" rules on peering. -p -----Original Message----- From: Ken Chase [mailto:ken () sizone org] Sent: June-08-11 4:10 PM To: nanog () nanog org Subject: Re: Cogent & HE On Wed, Jun 08, 2011 at 03:05:05PM -0500, Richard A Steenbergen said: >global reachability, in the hopes that it will strengthen their >strategic position for peering in the long term (i.e. they both want to >be an "IPv6 Tier 1"). > >I'm not making a judgement call about the rightness or wrongness of the >strategy (and after all, it clearly hasn't been THAT big of an issue >considering that it has been this way for MANY months), but to attempt >to "blame" one party for this issue is the height of absurdity. PR >stunts and cake baking not withstanding, they're both equally complicit. So we have to buy from BOTH HE and Cogent?! Sounds like market fixing to me! :/ Guess if we do we can advertise that on our webpage...
