After having a rather large and ever increasing number of customers complaining to us about increased traffic bills due to telecoms lack of peering, we have started down the road of "Lets simply block all telecom connected customer IP's at our International Border router" most of our customers so far have been agreeable to this strategy and I am wondering what the effect would be if everyone that peered at APE were to take a similar stance. Anyone think this may prompt telecom to peer if we say "we will allow you to send us national traffic only over agreed peering points yet not internationally" ? Just a thought.. -- Steve. --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
