Now its a question of whether Digex should run a DS3 connection to
another NAP [Isn't 4 the requirement?] or continue to pay ANS for the
circuit.
This is just a guess, but I suspect Digex will lose more customers if
they cannot connect to Agis than the other way around. However I am not
intimately familiar with either networks customer base.
