Price is probably for high availability and high SLA standards.
Yes, hopefully not for simple BGP route exchange...! :) mh

Hello everyone I have been aggressively looking for deals in servers in Europe for anycasting. One thing which surprises me is the "setup costs" for BGP. Few providers quoted additional $50-100 which looks OK but a few of them quoted as high as $150 *extra every month* just for having BGP (no full routing table, but just default route pointing). Is there's any technical logic behind such heavy costs? I mean at the end of day we are all talking at layer 3 and thus it does not involves any hard connection/physical work. What other members pay for BGP setup costs? Thanks! -- Anurag Bhatia anuragbhatia.com or simply - http://[2001:470:26:78f::5] if you are on IPv6 connected network!
