Where's you're traffic going to, or coming from? Without knowing that, it's hard to say... Take a look at netflow, flowtools, etc, and work out where large chunks of your traffic is going. Then research at peeringdb.com to work out which networks are likely to peer with you, and which peering exchanges they're present at. Then look at the cost of transport from your existing POPs to the peering points, and work out which ones it's financially viable for you to reach.

Thanks, i will look into peeringdb.com. Basically i just want to know if there is some "must have" locations in US, with a lot of ISP's POP on-site. Like AMS-IX in Europe.

Personally, I'd suggest LINX if you want to get into Europe :-) PAIX and Equinix are the big facilities in the US, but they have sites across the country - with the biggest concentrations on the East and West coasts. If you need to get into South America, then NAP of the Americas is probably useful.

E has a significant presence in Chicago so don't leave us out. :) tv ----- Original Message ----- From: "Simon Lockhart" <simon@slimey.org> To: "Konstantin Bezruchenko" <nanog@webazilla.com> Cc: "North American Network Operators Group" <nanog@merit.edu> Sent: Saturday, October 11, 2008 7:47 AM Subject: Re: Peering for beginners

Nope. It's for our another AS. AS35415 is for Europe only.
