Also just to clarify, DTAG are not a VM Transit providor but a 10G Peer and there's plenty of capacity on it :-)

Need to bear in mind that VM are still running two ASNs - 5462 and 5089. The prefixes behind 5462 are in the process of being moved onto 5089 which is supposed to be completing by the end of this year. The two ASNs don't neccesarily have the same peering sessions in the same locations.
to the forum, superkey, it's nice to have an expert voice around here in discussions like this.
