[afnog] Survey: Collecting African IXP Colocation Data for research purposes (Slight changes in the survey)

[Roderick]

Hi Frank and all, 

Thank you. Yes it helps to prove the MIXP existence. And I’ll launch further measurements later. 

I guess I should now classify MIXP in the category of those who did not reply to question 5;)  

I’ve just received via Skype a promise from RIMIX to reply today; I’ll keep you updated on this.  We are still missing:

## Those from which I really need a reply
SD; Sudan; SIXP; 
ZW; Zimbabwe; ZINX;
AO; Angola; ANGOLA-IX;
SZ; Swaziland; MBabane-IX; 
CI; Ivory Coast; CIVIX; (despite the website http://www.civix.ci/index.php/membres)
LR; Liberia; LIBERIA-IX;
BF; Burkina Faso; BFIX;
TN; Tunisia; TUNIXP; 
MZ; Mozambique; MOZIX;
RE; Reunion; Renaterix;
NA; Namibia; Whindoek-IX 

## Those for which a ‘Yes/Ok’ can work
ZA; South Africa; NAPAfrica JB - NAPAfrica DB - NAPAfrica CT; (https://www.napafrica.net/peering-clients/  combined with https://www.peeringdb.com/private/exchange_list.php?s_name=napafrica&s_city=&s_ipaddr=&s_country=&s_media=&s_region_continent=  for peering LAN)
GM; Gambia; SIXP-GM; (http://www.sixp.gm/about.html)
BW; Botswana; BINX;  (http://www.binx.org.bw/?page_id=13)


To give you an idea,  my list of not yet validated IXP peering LANs is the following: 
Not yet validated
CC; Country; ASN; prefixes
AO; ANGOLA-IX;  ; 196.223.1.0/24;   
CI; CIVIX; ; 196.223.4.0/24; 
SL; IXP-SL; ; 196.223.10.0/24;   
SD; NICSUDAN; ;196.223.20.0/24; 
LS; LIXP;  ; 196.223.24.0/24;  
ZW; ZINX;  ; 196.223.26.0/24;     
MZ; MOZIX;  ; 196.223.33.0/24;  
GM; sixpv4;  ; 196.223.34.0/24; 
NA; IXP-Namibia;  ; 196.223.35.0/24;  
SZ; MBABANE-IXP;  ; 196.223.37.0/24;   
GA; GABON-IX;  ; 196.223.39.0/24;    
ZA; NAPAfricaCT; ; 196.10.140.0/24
ZA; NAPAfricaJB; ; 196.46.25.128/25
ZA; NAPAfricaDB;  ; 196.10.141.0/24

Thank you, 

BR,

Roderick
