Level 3, Comcast call truce in peering fight

Level 3 Communications and Comcast have come to terms over their much publicized interconnection dispute, but did not reveal the terms of their agreement. "Level 3 and Comcast have resolved their prior interconnect dispute on mutually satisfactory terms," the companies said in joint statement. "Details will not be released." The debate between the two service providers dates back to November 2010 when Level 3 challenged Comcast's request that it had to pay the cable MSO a fee to deliver Netflix movies to its residential customers. Netflix is one of Level 3's content delivery network (CDN) customers.
