This page contains the answers to the exercises and some supplemental material from The Internet Peering Playbook available in June.
A) $5/month B) $2500/month C) $4000/month d) $6500/month
The answer is C) $4000/month.2) I am purchasing Internet Transit from ISP B for $5 per Mbps but I am considering buying their 1G commit transit product at a price of $3/Mbps. I still expect to send 500 Mbps and receive 800Mbps at the 95th percentile. Should I commit to 1G?
The answer is Yes. The cost of a 1G commit is $3/Mbps * 1000Mbps=$3000 per month. If you do not commit to the 1G you will pay $5/Mbps * 800Mbps=$4000/month. Commit early - it is a good deal.
