I'm buying VOC because, page-483

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)
