IIRC, Exodus had arrangements with at least some of their peering partners where in exchange for the toleration of the asymetric traffic flow at peering points, they would honor MEDs sent to them by said peering partners. I'm assuming that C&W's pering points do not do this. So, it appears that these carriers are going to find a lot more Exodus-orignated traffic on their networks come Friday. I just hope for C&W's sake that their peering points are up to for the challenge of carrying that traffic. -C On Tue, Mar 26, 2002 at 12:47:57PM -0500, Sean Donelan wrote:

Isn't bulk of the bandwidth is outbound from Exodus. Won't this just increase the distance and AS count for Exodus outbound traffic, making Exodus hosting even less desirable?
