Hi, I am a graduate student of computer science, now I am working on Internet exchange points. Following the discussion of exchange points last month, I have some more specific questions. 1, Some of the exchange points are layer 2 facilities, then why do they need register IP addresses? Furthermore, those IP addresses do appears in the traceroute traces (from the skitter data of caida). Does this mean that these IP addresses are actually in use? Then how the layer 2 exchange points work? 2, How do you categorize the exchange points into large/local IXs, transit/peering IXs (besides look into the peering policies)? From the number of participants? Or from who are the participants? Thanks. Ruomei Gao Email: gte489q () prism gatech edu
