Why would you buy transit from either AGIS or CRL if you could also buy it from MCI, ANS, Sprint or UUNET? Are you saying that if one of these big players has a moretorium on peering, it also does not do transit?
Well, you may not want to get it form MCI, ANS, or UUNET because they would peer with you, but will not peer with customers. This is where we are at right now, we are building a full clear channel DS3 network, and have a T1 right now into MCI for people we don't peer with. MCI is now ready to peer, but will not until we ditch the T1 we have. We don't want to go with UUNET or ANS because that would kill peering with them. So our only choice is a smaller NSP that has Sprint peering but not a lot of net traffic so it would not kill us not to peer, or Sprint. P.S. I am looking for a copy of Sprints peering contract, if you have it and want to share that would be great. So far I have had problems getting it form Sprint. Nathan Stratton CEO, NetRail, Inc.
