What would help, would be a way to reduce the effort involved in setting up these peerings. At the DC Nanog, I proposed a Multilateral Universal Peering arrangement, consisting of an agreement and a few changes to the RAs, specifically in the area of macros or include statments. It would work this way: any provider who wished to (and met the criteria?), could sign the agreement and with a few changes to the RA macro, be peered thru the RAs to all the other signatories. The model today requires N*(N-1) discussions, with N approaching 100 at Mae-East, this is a waste of resources. Unfortunately the needed software changes to the RAs is not yet ready, but once it is, I plan to try and get this effort started.
