Hey Bug,

They are separate because they operate their existing transit under different ASN's.

I'm sure once the network has been fully integrated they will re-sign or migrate it all to Vocus transit

Was just looking into BGP, which is a tool for routing between networks, there are a bunch of tools that can be used to analyse it etc;
http://www.bgp4.as/tools

One in particular has a rank of the various networks by theire "cone size" (number of their direct and indirect customers), of the Australian Telco's

Column 1 Column 2 Column 3 Column 4

1 AU Rank Company Global Rank "Cone" size

2 1 Telstra 37 1403

3 2 Vocus 44 974

4 3 Optus 59 654

5 4 TPG 70 550

6 5 iiNet 75 522

7 6 Micron21 184 183

8 7 Superloop 246 132

9 8 AARNET 273 117

10 9 Colocation Australia 387 83

11 10 Nextgen 394 82

Compiled from http://as-rank.caida.org/asns

By this measure we have very good network, not as good as Telstra, by clearly better than Optus and TPG/iiNet.

I guess Superloop have some work to do to make good use of indigo.

Im not sure why the separate entries for Vocus/Nextgen and TPG/iiNet, it could be a sign they arent properly integrated yet, in Vocus's case, government contracts are often done under Nextgen, not sure why, or why TPG/iiNet are still separate.

(It might be interesting to compare it over time)
