Subject: QoS-IXPs
Dear Sirs,
excuse me please for bothering you with the following information, but I
thought it could be of use for you as well.
Background:
I am currently proposing a class of service signalling extension to BGP in
order to enhance the current best effort AS interconnection into a simple
class-based interconnection.
This primitive traffic separation scheme also encompasses lower layer QoS
schemes in a consistent manner, which makes it attractive for QoS interested
peering partners to meet on peering platforms with Ethernet QoS support.
Therefore, I am trying to find out about Internet exchange points, which would
a least transparently (untouched) transfer user priority bits
across their platform and might even have 802.1p enqueueing and scheduling
enabled on their switches.
Having said that, I will point you to the current QoS capable IXP list on the
web.

Furthermore, if you are interested to be recognized by QoS interested peering
partners as potential peering platform, I would cordially invite you to
register there as well.

Thank you in advance,
Thomas Knoll
