One cannot be both. If DIGEX really has two sides to its operations
and wants them to be treated completely independently, each part
should be incorporated separately, and left to operate at arms-length
from each other.
The corporation that is a strict non-reseller (i.e. all the datagrams
go to and from its own machines, not its customers' machines) will be
treated as an ANS customer and presumably will have CIX access.
The other company will be a reseller and will have to arrange a
transit agreement with ANS (or whatever) and also join the CIX.
