Peering points

And because there was a provider who had a T1 into the NAP for quite
some time :slight_smile:

Anyway, why would you put less than a "FULL T3" into that NAP?

Well, because you are not a Sprint CUSTOMER, which is exactly the type
of connection that Avi was talking about (transit customer
connections).

It has nothing to do with being a Sprint customer. Sprint Government
Systems Division, the NAP operator, does not support T1 connections to its
NAP.

And because there was a provider who had a T1 into the NAP for quite
some time :slight_smile:

Those two providers upgraded to DS3 almost a year ago. We haven't
supported T1s since then.

Precisely! Why would a ISP with a DS3 into the NAP want to peer with a T1?

To exchange traffic. And it is not mine to second guess them as to why.
