Follow up from old post about the MAE East... if you're interested, take a look here for pix of the MAE. grisha.iserver.net These are related to the fiber cut that happened today. -Mike There are two major Eastern National Access Points, one is Sprint's in Pennsauken, NJ, and the other is MAE (Metro Access Exchange?)East in Reston, Virginia. Virtual Private Networks will become increasingly important as encryption allows their creation across the public internet. The MAE-East is actually near Tyson's Corner on Gallows Road in Vienna, Virginia. But the NAPs aren't really that big of a deal anymore, it's the private peerings that are important... The MAE is still based on a FDDI architecture, whereas the manly private peerings are Packet Over Sonet (OC3/OC12). The MAE is like a backup in case there's a hiccup with the private peerings :) Mike
