However MPLS hidden hops may hide internal paths, and any connection may
be limited to slower than its line rate, and dns entries may be old....
 
It's not publicly available at one source that I'm aware of, and if
there is they don't have my info.

Subject: Peering point speed publicly available?



NANOG,

 

I have a question regarding information on my ISP's peering
relationships.  Are the speeds of some or all peering relationships
public knowledge, and if so, where can I find this?  By speed, I mean
bandwidth (DS3, OC3, 100Mbps, 1Gbps, etc.).  I am trying to transfer
large stuff from my AS, through my ISP, through another ISP, to another
AS, and I'm wondering how fast the peering point is between the ISPs.
I'm working with my provider to get this information as we speak, but
I'm wondering if it's available publicly anywhere.  If it were, this
could be one way to evaluate providers in the future, I guess...
