when opening a new exchange there are no customers connected yet, all you have is a business plan. So everything is kind of speculative and you can easily adjust your plan that you need a /24 - so why add additional workload to the NCC to review business plans? An honest IXP operator can request something smaller if he knows that the exchange will not grow beyond a small number of customers within the first 5 years or so. best regards Wolfgang -- Wolfgang Tremmel Phone +49 69 1730902 26 | Fax +49 69 4056 2716 | Mobile +49 171 8600 816 | [email protected] Executive Directors: Harald A.
