Kurt, which problem do you try to solve? :-) In principle an IXP is a Layer 2 fabric with no IP stuff involved. If there is Layer 3 stuff (route servers, statistics, web,...) then the *IP* stuff would usually have an IXP-defined routing policy. Why should we try to force indepentend organisations to use the same routing policy all over the places? Cheers, servus, Wifried.
