Gordon,
It is not sufficient for a network R to be connected to a provider S
that is CIX connected for R to have CIX connectivity. If customer C of
R wants CIX connectivity then R must also be a CIX member.
CIX members can augment their Internet connectivity by peering with N
directly or peer with some other network M which peers with N.
hope this clears things up for you,
peter
