+1 - This is something we’ve wanted for a while. I expect most networks would just tick this box and get on with life. Our biggest problem with pdb from an ixp perspective is the trash people put in the ‘IP address’ field.

Previously the concept was fraught with political danger but the safeguards proposed should mitigate this.
