Re: Buying IP Bandwidth Across a Peering Exchange

I know a couple networks that offer to sell transit over exchanges that
permit it, but require that you take a private VLAN on the exchange.

Some exchanges offer private VLANs, others don't.

Is this possible?

it depends.  Some transit providers will decline to do this because it can
impact on their margin.  Most IXPs don't have a problem with it, but some
do - although it's not clear how they can tell which packets are transit
and which are peering.
