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 related to general principles:

    Every writer is necessarily a critic—that is, each sentence is a skeleton accompanied by enormous activity of rejection; and each selection is governed by general principles concerning truth, force, beauty, and so on.... The critic that is in every fabulist is like the iceberg—nine-tenths of him is under water.
    Thornton Wilder (1897–1975)
