[kictanet] KIXP connectivity

[robert yawe]

Hi Dennis,

If I go through a connected ISP it defeats the purpose of being on the exchange 
point as they will just bundle me onto their exiting link, our objective is to 
be able to control the connection. 

If we are going to promote local hosting we need a way to optimise connectivity 
across as many ISPs as possible.  With the rate Safaricom is growing, currently 
60% of the traffic to our site is from Safaricom data customers, we are looking 
forward to their collocation facilities.

You have to buy a link to KIXP via a connected ISP. Consult also with Internet 
Solutions, they are hosting a backup of the Nairobi IXP
