Uhm, another dumb question.

Why does the operator of a layer 2 exchange care (or know) what
protocols your are using?  IPv4, IPv6, heck I remember seeing
Appletalk, OSI and DECNET on MAE-EAST.  What consenting network
operators do....

What step does Equinix (or any other layer 2 exchange) need to do?
The ATM NAPs might have an issue due to ATM/ARP, but even then I suspect
two consenting network operators could use static IPv6 ARP tables
without the NAP operator doing anything.
