Most people (including the facility itself) call it "NotA". :)
Terremark runs an IX in Miami with lots of "south of the border" =20
networks, as well as the one in S=E3o Paulo, which is probably the one =20=
you found.
Other than that, there's another IX in S=E3o Paulo just a few miles from =
=20
the Terremark facility with some additional, as well as some =20
duplicate, carriers.
Besides S=E3o Paulo, I do not know any IXes in SA with lots of good =20
peering, but would love to be educated.
