Hi Alex, Thanks, I might have been unclear.
By “where” I meant to make a difference between the core infrastructure and “edges“, where the latter can be considered limited domains that need to interconnect to the Internet (the core) but as well among them not necessarily going through a centralized service. Is it clearer?
