Historically TPG hasn't merged their acquisitions at a routing level. Think comindico, soul, pipe - at one stage I remember seeing a traceroute out of sydney from comindico post purchase and it was like 9 hops or something. wow.<div class="HOEnZb">

Hi Alex,<br>
<br>
In my experience the three networks are still somewhat separate from each<br>
other.<br>

Hi<br>
<br>
Wondering how other people are dealing with Pipe / TPG / AAPT AS's<br>
<br>
Do you treat them as 1 company, the presumption being that the peering<br>
between them is a lot better or because they haven't merged their AS, treat<br>
them as 3 separate AS's<br>
<br>
<br>
So if my understanding is correct if I peer with Pipe, AAPT clients see me<br>
as 3 AS's away, but if the peering is better AAPT -> Pipe -> ME than say XXX<br>
-> ME.<br>
<br>
But this is all based on the assumption that PIPE -> AAPT & Pipe -> TPG is<br>
better ??<br>
<br>
<br>
Alex<br>
