[Dundi] peering questions

[Kurt Zoglmann]

I have a few questions that I have not found answers to looking at  
voip-info.org, dundi.com, or the recent messages on the list serv.

Excluding US toll free numbers and international calls, what order of  
magnitude of extensions are available through dundi?

How many entities or peers are currently involved with dundi?

I understand that Tier 1 providers have a significant amount of  
bandwidth available. Tier 2 have 50-100% of Tier 1. And Tier 3 have  
50-100% of Tier 2. But what kinds of bandwidth is it actually taking  
to be Tier 1, 2, and 3 peers?

Do the number of extensions that you will be providing access to also  
play into which tier is most appropriate?

How does one go about finding a provider that is closest to you in  
dialing pattern? Is there a complete listing of dialing prefixes and  
dundi members provided somewhere online? There seems to be a little  
bit of information on voip-info.org, but not too much.

Has anyone experienced any abuse or problems since joining the dundi  
bandwagon?

Are there any other major universities participating in DUNDi?

Kansas State University Telecommunications is looking to test the  
waters with asterisk and DUNDi. We currently have 90Mbit of bandwidth  
and have 1000's of DIDs. In terms of telecommunications, we tend to  
be a leader for other state universities. I'm sure if we are  
successful, we could get other major state universities to join us in  
supporting DUNDi.

I wouldn't mind chatting with someone on the phone in regards to  
their experience with DUNDi. You can reach me at 785-532-4505 M-F  
8am-5pm central time. Thanks in advance!
