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 principles, general and/or principles:

    The conclusion suggested by these arguments might be called the paradox of theorizing. It asserts that if the terms and the general principles of a scientific theory serve their purpose, i. e., if they establish the definite connections among observable phenomena, then they can be dispensed with since any chain of laws and interpretive statements establishing such a connection should then be replaceable by a law which directly links observational antecedents to observational consequents.
    —C.G. (Carl Gustav)

    What is written without effort is in general read without pleasure.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    A bureaucracy is sure to think that its duty is to augment official power, official business, or official members, rather than to leave free the energies of mankind; it overdoes the quantity of government, as well as impairs its quality. The truth is, that a skilled bureaucracy ... is, though it boasts of an appearance of science, quite inconsistent with the true principles of the art of business.
    Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
