Thanks very much... we have a price from S&D for the x-connect. If we
connect on the PAIX side (most likely) do we need multiple VLAN's? I
had planned on a single VLAN on the port for there - just need to
understand ;)
Thanks,
Paul

And keep in mind that while the SIX and PAIX-SEA are directly connected,
the exchanges are on different VLANs from the perspective of a PAIX-SEA
connection.
If you connect on the SIX side, you can only reach the SIX fabric. No
MRC.
If you connect on the PAIX-SEA side, you can reach both the SIX fabric
and
the PAIX-SEA fabric via a single router port. For MRC talk to an S&D
rep.
