Think of 174 started to peer with 1239 and redirecting some outbound traffic to 3320 over this new peer. Since 3320 is buying from 1239, they will pay more to 1239, and 1239 accepts 174 as a new peer because they get more money from 3320 ... as mentioned, this is just a rumour I heard, but reading William B. Norton's theory (tactic #9), this would make sense.
In the very least it's eventually something to use to put pressure on those AS3320 guys. The idea is pretty smart ;) Elmar. -- "Hinken ist kein Mangel eines Vergleichs, sondern sollte als wesentliche Eigenschaft von Vergleichen angesehen werden."
