The InterNAP box is the only one I'm aware of that'll do inbound. Noction has a box that does outbound only and they were working on inbound, but last I knew hadn't finished it yet. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Stewart" < [email protected] > To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, April 18, 2015 8:26:49 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Aggrigation of upstream There’s a few of them out there.. I have yet to understand why I would want to buy a big expensive box (and they are NOT cheap) to influence my outbound BGP traffic, knowing that like humans, we can only influence inbound BGP traffic a very limited amount.
