  8. Hybrid L2/L3 devices like OSR/7600 present new challenges Risk of incorrect configuration may violate MOU Future requirement for Jumbo Frames anticipated ISPs currently moving to 4470 or 9192 core MTU Peter Lothberg religion at NANOG22: core MTU at least 4470 is a MUST: http://www.nanog.org/mtg-0105/real/iponly.ram IXPs need to move in step with ISPs to avoid becoming the MTU bottleneck Issues and Future Directions  2000 Equinix, All rights reserved

  9. IPv6 Unicast Exchange VLAN now available: No longer experimental Driven by commercial forces Bill Woodcock / PCH installing BGP archive collectors in Ashburn and San Jose 10GigE: some disruptive price per port is on the horizon :-) Multicast—still experimental (as usual ;-) Issues and Future Directions (cont’d)  2000 Equinix, All rights reserved

  10. A natural evolution to more efficient, high-capacity private peering A central, neutral meet-me in major cities avoids a metro SONET mess^Hh Geared toward folks that have OC48+ backbones across western, central, and eastern U.S. More than 15 companies in the process of moving to Equinix ICE peering architecture Major domestic, international, or global ISPs. GigE switch port is bundled with the service, ICE participants are free to use this for certain peers Internet Core Exchange (ICE)  2000 Equinix, All rights reserved

  11. Architecture is simple, and benefits obvious: You can participate whenever you choose, unlike metro peering rings which need to be designed up front with participants in mind Avoids closed rings that limit participation Eliminates requirement for all participants to adopt the same technology Much faster and more flexible provisioning No more local loop facilities issues Much more scalable Internet Core Exchange (cont’d)  2000 Equinix, All rights reserved
