<div>If the policy needs revision <i>(John's comments did not
provide enough of a background story - it's unclear if this
a yet another IPv4 land grab approach, and/or IXP's evolving
into hosting content caches, and/or the historical industry
acceptable usage that Ryan shares), </i>maybe consider
micro-allocations for IXP usage as unannounced prefixes and
for routed prefixes, an IXP applies under NRPM 4.3 <i>(end
user assignments). <br>

<p>I have a similar conversation recently with someone willing to
use IXP allocations to assign to content caches and on this point
I think that IXP pool should not be for that. Even knowing the
positive impact a hosted content directly connected to a IXP makes
it is their business to being their own IP address not the IXP and
to be fair if you think of any CDN service they all have total
means to do that. Therefore IXP allocations should be used for IXP
own usage, so internal Infrastructure and to connect members and
things should not be mixed up.<br>
