When I got my IXP allocation I was told that I couldn't host any
infrastructure on it - web sites, monitoring boxes, mail servers and
that it was only to be given out to exchange members. I use other IP
space to host the exchange's web, mail and monitoring services.
It seems like a pretty poor way to "game the system" and get IP space
since it's a /24 and the initial scrutiny is pretty tough.

Just for reference the policy with regard to IXPs says this below. I
believe that the point was that the IXP had to have at least two
customers and all this other information that they are providing a
credible IXP in order to get a micro allocation.

"Exchange point operators must provide justification for the
allocation, including: connection policy, location, other participants
(minimum of two total), ASN, and contact information. ISPs and other
organizations receiving these micro-allocations will be charged under
the ISP fee schedule, while end-users will be charged under the fee
schedule for end-users. This policy does not preclude exchange point
operators from requesting address space under other policies."

Someone pointed me at 4.4 and noted that it says that an IXP can
receive an allocation if two parties are present. The common
understanding in the industry is that two parties connected are
private peering and three on a common switch "could" be an IXP.
Is there a reason not to bump this number up to three in light of
prevailing circumstances and conservation of the infrastructure
pool? If two is arbitrarily low, it's a good time to make three
arbitrarily low. I think it would be wise in terms of insuring
that resources are being used effectively.
Thoughts?
