Thanks very much... we have a price from S&D for the x-connect. If we connect on the PAIX side (most likely) do we need multiple VLAN's? I had planned on a single VLAN on the port for there - just need to understand ;)

And keep in mind that while the SIX and PAIX-SEA are directly connected, the exchanges are on different VLANs from the perspective of a PAIX-SEA connection. If you connect on the SIX side, you can only reach the SIX fabric. No MRC. If you connect on the PAIX-SEA side, you can reach both the SIX fabric and the PAIX-SEA fabric via a single router port. For MRC talk to an S&D rep.
