IXP Assignment policy Internet Exchange Points are eligible to receive a portable assignment from APNIC for use on their IXP transit LAN. A special condition of all assignments made under these terms is that the IXP must not announce the address space to the global Internet routing table. All IXP who received a /64 from previous policy can receive a /48 in return for their /64. (They can do this through simply sending a mail to APNIC or their respective NIR.)
