Notes

  1. 1.

    A tier-1 provider has at least a national scale and agreements to exchange traffic with other tier-1 providers, often at no cost to either party.

  2. 2.

    And it certainly won’t optimize costs or distance for providers downstream.

  3. 3.

    Due to factors such as address space exhaustion and the urgency to protect customer devices that should not be used as servers from misuse, the ability to address any device is often restricted by Network Address Translation (NAT) and the use of non-routable address spaces (notably 10.x.x.x and 192.168.x.x RFC1918 spaces).
