Hi there...
I'm in a meeting next week to discuss settlement-free peering etc.....
always an interesting time. A push is on (by myself) to get into other
physical locations and participate on the peering exchanges.
Besides costs, what other factors are benefits to peering?
I can think of some but looking to develop a concrete list of appealing
reasons etc. such as:
-control over routing between networks
-security aspect (being able to filter/verify routes to some degree)
-latency/performance
Just looking for other positive ideas etc...;)
Cheers!
Paul
