Are they an NSP? Do they operate their own national backbone? Can they provide national transit over their own network infrastructure? Do they interconnect with other NSP's who satisfy the previous two conditions at most of the public exchange points?
Where public exchange points == {MAE-East, MAE-West, Pennsauken, PacBell NAP, Chicago NAP, and arguably the CIX router/cloud}. And NSPISP, NXIX, STIX, HKIX, D-GIX, F-GIX, CIXP, LINX, etc. etc. etc. Barry
