I thought that when Cogent "de-peers" someone who was their peer they generally blackhole the traffic on their end? Plus, given that other interlinks are ususally balanced, sudden surge of traffic intended to a peer can screw that up too (so Level 3 or whoever would start complaining at Cogent that their traffic became disproportionate etc etc)
Frankly I see how Sprint would want to squeeze out money, and I hope Cogent will win every one of the peering wars Because if it wasn't for Cogent, the prices would be even higher. Sure, you can hiccups. But I think it's worth it. And those who complain can always move to another provider, that is 5% more stable at 10 times the cost  -- Странные новости почти каждый день |
