-====== What is Peering ======
-Peering is the connection of one network operator to another network operator to exchange traffic originated by each network operator.
-The vast majority of peering does not attract traffic charges - it is known as "settlement-free peering".
-Peering can take place in two forms:
-  - **Private peering** is where there is a private connection between the two network operators for the purpose of exchanging traffic.
-  - **Public peering** takes place at a public peering point, commonly known as an Internet Exchange Point (IXP).
