Any idea what is going on with www.ep.net web server? Is there any other way to request IP addresses for exchange points other than via the web site?

yes, the normal way. go to ripe/arin/apnic. they allocate /24s to IXs

randy

Yes they do. And often, they will refer you to folk already providing that service. (much like the "have you contacted your upstream?" question that gets asked when folks want numbers.) I encourage folks to consider all their choices when constructing an exchange. --bill

Arnold, thanks for all I need is one ip address from the NYIIX allocated pool for my router. Not a whole /24 for a new IX.

Thomas,

your RIR (RIPE for Switzerland) should also be able to assign addresses. Pls have also a look at http://www.ripe.net/ripe/wg/eix/index.html
