there are at least a couple of IXPs that are considering (if not
implemented) the elimination of 802.3z and moved up to 802.3ae as a
minimum IX connection.
MICE is officially dropping 1G (on MICE operated switches). The relevant
participants have been notified. We are dropping our 1G switches at the
same time (or shortly before) we move cabinets and install a new 400G
switch.
I think the days of every IX offering 1Gpbs connections are certainly
numbered as 10G becomes ever cheaper to implement.
I agree. In MICE's case, there were 3 participants on the MICE-operated
switches using 1G. There are another 3 on remote switches.
Interestingly, while the Open-IX website [1] says, "Minimum port speeds
of 1GE and 10GE", the actual document [2] says, "The IXP MUST offer IEEE
802.3 Ethernet connectivity on a common switch infrastructure. Service
offerings MAY be available at any IEEE defined rate".
