Communications Manager

Navigate to the Peering tab. Select "Communications" for the desire exchange to bring up the peer communications manager.

The communications manager lists the current peer communications, allowing you to mark peering status and send out peering requests from the interface. Current peers are denoted by a green check symbol under Peer; peers that are not qualified will show a red 'no entry' symbol. Request shows the status of incoming peering requests. Updates made to the communications status will be logged under Notes.
