Re: Interconnects at NANOG

I think the term "interconnect" is fairly generic. I have often heard some of the providers refer to the MAEs and NAPs as "public interconnects"... However, I think folks use the term "MAE" and "NAP" to refer to different implementations of a "public interconnect"... It is probably an oversimplification to say they are all the same thing. -- Stan | Academ Consulting Services |internet: sob@academ.com Olan | For more info on academ, see this |uucp: {mcsun|amdahl}!academ!sob Barber | URL- http://www.academ.com/academ |Opinions expressed are only mine.
