We announce the IXP blocks to customers and not peers for IXs which we participate. Additionally we don't filter our peers if they were to announce an IXP block so long as it is not an IXP block for an IX which we participate. (grammar?) This way we can continue to learn routes for things like l.root-servers.net and www.ep.net. -Dave Aditya wrote:

as peers do not give eachother transit, you don't need to announce the IX to eachother to get traceroute to work. you just carry it in your own network.
Weren't they talking about customers at a "downstream" ISPs which don't connect directly to the exchange?
