Eligibility for IXP assignment
------------------------------

  Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) are eligible to receive a portable
  assignment from APNIC for use on their IXP transit LAN.
  
  IXPs receiving these assignments should not announce the assigned
  address space to the global Internet routing table.

  Definition of an IXP  

  An Internet Exchange Point (IXP) is a physical network
  infrastructure (layer 2), operated by a single entity to facilitate
  the exchange of Internet traffic between ISPs. The number of ISPs
  connected should be at least three and there must be a clear and
  open policy for others to join.
