This is my favorite episode. Thank you for sharing this wealth of knowledge. Am a new Sr. level engineer and glad to stumble here

@John thank you for explaining the concern about a peer sending unadvertised traffic, like pointing their default at me. I had wondered about how that is handled. This sounds like another great selling point for an IXP, because the IXP keeps an eye on peering traffic. Any idea how much latency the process of watching the traffic adds, compared to direct peering outside of an IXP (all other things like distance being equal)?

With everything being in hardware switching wise. Less than a millisecond. At that level your talking about the length of the fiber being slightly longer in most cases.
While it's a concern if your high frequency stock trading, the rest of us would benefit more greatly from the monitoring than the slight delay that might be introduced with going through a switch instead of a direct cross connect.
