Ok, I have been told repeatedly that I cannot peer with Sprint because I don't meet the three NAP list. Ok, what is considered a NAP by sprint? I'm in the process of putting a DS3 to SprintNAP so I assume that will count for one... PacNAP count? Mae-East or West? Whats the official list so that I don't have to keep bouncing routes for Sprint customers all over kingdom come or hope for route reflections on the various interconnect points... Also, once you do meet the criteria, who do you talk to? Talking to a Sprint salesman is like talking to a brick wall...

Sprint, PacBell, Ameritech, MAE-East, and MAE-West all count I think.

The peering contact guy. :-) Most NAPs give you a list of contacts. P.S. Also with sprint you need a FULL DS3 east to west cost to peer. Nathan Stratton CEO, NetRail, Inc.

From the NSF Solicitations: MAE-East Sprint NAP AADS NAP PacBell NAP These are the formal NAPs. I don't know what Sprint thinks of when the term "NAP" is used. -- --bill

As per the NSF 93-52 solicitation and award, there are 3 official Primary NAPSs and one Interconnect point (secondary NAP): San Francisco NAP (Pacbell & Bellcore) New York NAP (Sprint - actually in Pennsaucken New Jersey) Chicago NAP (Ameritech & Bellcore) The interconnect point (secondary NAP): Washington DC (MFS DataNet - aka DC NAP and Mae-East). --curtis
