[AusNOG] Bandwidth prices/recommendations

[Matthew Moyle-Croft]

Scott,
What do YOU mean by "Tier1"?   The concept of Tier 1 in Australia is  
interesting as most of the global tier 1s are forced to buy transit  
from Optus/Telstra/AAPT.   The only actual "Tier1" in Australia is VzB  
(AS703) I'd assert.  Neither Optus, Telstra or AAPT are "Tier1s" as  
they all buy their international off parent companies - none of whom  
are Tier1s.  Optus and AAPT both purchase International transit in  
Australia from other parties as well.
