Btw, I would like to see PVLAN implemented if possible. It's not just for big IXPs, its for all. And MICE is getting big regardless. The compliance pieces fit well here IMHO. OIX-1 is an open standard; IXP's can choose to either be compliant or be certified. Ether way, it's open and recommended.

It didn't. If someone thinks all IXPs should do this, they should take a run at this and see if they can get the rest of the IXP community to support it (Not just Netnod and NASA). > > We have the same issue as Andrew, and we have zero interest to go to an MTU of 9000. > > > Best, > > -M< > > > > > On Jul 24, 2014, at 6:29 PM, "Koch, Andrew" <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > >> The UG 13 minutes make note that the exchange MTU is 9000 bytes.
