National Internet Exchange of India - General Principles

General Principles

  1. NIXI is not an ISP and will not provide Internet connections.
  2. NIXI and the ISP will enter into a membership agreement (MoU) and thereafter the peering ISPs will enter into their own bilateral or multilateral commercial agreements as the case may be.
  3. NIXI will charge the member ISP as per the Schedule of Fee and Charges. The ISP will arrange for his own router/s to be placed at NIXI. Charges will include a specified rack space beyond which additional charges will apply. The connected ISP must provide and manage it thereafter.
  4. NIXI will not guarantee the presence of any particular service provider to peer with. Additionally, the ISP will be free to be connected to NIXI via a leased line through any carrier he chooses. NIXI will be carrier neutral.
  5. NIXI will not assign or provide for IP addresses, AS numbers, etc. Peering ISPs will make their own arrangements with APNIC for this. However, efforts will be made to assist during the initial handholding period of 8 months or so..

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or principles:

    Without metaphor the handling of general concepts such as culture and civilization becomes impossible, and that of disease and disorder is the obvious one for the case in point. Is not crisis itself a concept we owe to Hippocrates? In the social and cultural domain no metaphor is more apt than the pathological one.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    It is not impossible, of course, after such an administration as Roosevelt’s and after the change in method that I could not but adapt in view of my different way of looking at things, that questions should arise as to whether I should go back on the principles of the Roosevelt administration.... I have a government of limited power under a Constitution, and we have got to work out our problems on the basis of law. Now, if that is reactionary, then I am a reactionary.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
