Hello.

I am wondering how the peering points or internet exchange points work and how one may gain connect their own network to one of these points?

Is this basically a good old boy club were they can blackball you if they don't like the way you look or are their guidelines in place for this?

The information I found online is very unclear on exactly how the whole things works, it seem to suggest that these are backroom secret deals and arrangements.

I was just wondering if anyone here has any experiencing with working with one of these peering points centers?

Thanks.
