due to how the SIXP works, pretty much all the ISPs in sudan should be
making use of this already. it's always a good idea to check :-) but
you shouldn't expect surprises here.
now, that you have DNS roots in-country, and your ccTLD is hosted
in-country; is there an opportunity for a local, professional DNS
services company in sudan? (hint: this is really, really not a
difficult thing to do...)
don't lose sight of what this gives you; more network autonomy, and
slightly more (local) network resilience and performance. all of which
doesn't really amount to much, if you don't follow through, and continue
to build in this way. so, start by making your DNS local, and then
slowly migrate more and more content to be in-country, and then to be a
nett exporter of content; *that* should be the goal you're aiming to
achieve.
well, imho :-)
