3. The problem with “Edoardo Solution”
Transit
Transit is difficult to get:
- it is not free for those providing it
- it is not easy to justify to funding agencies

4. How to move forward We should rather concentrate on:
- connection with TEIN for transiting remote Asian countries, to GEANT (and possibly to other not-Asian VRFs)
- full mesh of peerings between Asian VRFs in major Asian Exchange Points (Hong Kong, Singapore..)
- those with transpacific links should peer with other not-Asian VRFs like CANARIE, Internet2 but also GEANT and NORDUnet

7. Questions from the day
Would it be useful if TRANSPAC implement a VRF and peer with JGN?
How to connect TEIN to ESnet?

8. Well done! LHCONE situation in Asia has very much improved.
Kudos to everyone who has worked for this achievement!
It should be called “the ATCF solution”
