[Rix-discussion] Route servers

Hello,

As you’re probably aware, RIX does not and has never operated route servers. The reason is that it’s a small IXP with so few ASN connected, that it’s not been deemed worth it.

Of course everything changes and evolves, and even though there are only 29 ASN connected now, we want to gauge your opinion on whether a) You would peer with route servers, if they we’re setup for RIX and b) Would you encourage RIX to setup route servers, and if so, are there any special features you would recommend supporting (communities, filters etc.)?
