Back on topic now... Isnt this dejavu? Didnt we go through his just months ago? So whats changed?
Are you thinking of November last year, when TelstraClear pulled its peering with ICONZ? What's changed... TelstraClear has written to customers that it has "informal agreements" with to say that these need to be replaced by "commercial" ones. Also, TelstraClear has said that it will stop peering at the APE and the WIX, and remove existing ports and connections there. If ISPs want to continue with said "domestic internet service", they will have to enter into a commercial agreement with TCL and establish connections at new sites. It also appears that in order to receive "domestic internet connectivity" ISPs that buy international transit from TelstraClear, must also buy domestic from it. All this will go into effect from November 1st this year. -- Juha
