701 is not the most connected, it has only customers and a restrictive set of peers?
Ok, I'm just bored enough to bite.
but not as bored as bill, randy or patrick it would seem :)
If we're talking about a contest to see who has the most number of directly connected ASNs, I think UU might still win, even with a restrictive set of peers.
I didnt think we were, kinda happened.. if peering partners is a compensation for something else its pretty sad ;) Maybe I'm wrong, i checked with renesys and their data has 701 with 5200 adjacencies followed by 1239 with 3500 anyway i care enough to have snipped the data.
Which begs the question, what is the largest number of ASNs that someone peers with? Patrick? :) Somehow I suspect that 701's customer base (702 and 703 aren't included in the above count BTW) overpower even the most aggressively open of peering policies, in this particular random pointless and arbitrary contest at any rate.
so what are we debating again? :) Steve
