Richard, There are several exchange points, but their functions tend to be slightly different from what is understood in the US. IXes such as SOX (Singapore), HKIX (Hong Kong), JPIX & NSP-IXP2 (Japan) and KIX & KINX (Korea) tend to be the more oft quoted IXes in Asia and are familiar in design and function. The others are either very much in-country exchanges offering neutral traffic exchange, or being run by one operator as a for profit transit service provider. (Consider in the latter cases the use of the word exchange as a "marketing" term... ;-) As others have pointed out, www.ep.net has the list of all the known ones. Hope this helps. philip -- At 12:43 11/05/2002 -0400, Richard A Steenbergen wrote:
I know this isn't quote North American, but does anyone know what major exchange points exist in Asia? The largest one I've found so far is JPIX, which seems to move a fair amount of traffic (http://www.jpix.co.jp/en/techncal/traffic.html). Any other major ones?
