The growing popularity of Internet exchange points (IXPs) brings a
new set of requirements to interconnect participating networks.
While bilateral exterior BGP sessions between exchange participants
were previously the most common means of exchanging reachability
information, the overhead associated with dense interconnection has
caused substantial operational scaling problems for Internet exchange
point participants.

This document outlines a specification for multilateral
interconnections at IXPs.  Multilateral interconnection is a method
of exchanging routing information between three or more BGP speakers
using a single intermediate broker system, referred to as a route
server.  Route servers are typically used on shared access media
networks such as Internet exchange points (IXPs), to facilitate
simplified interconnection between multiple Internet routers on such
a network.
