Abstract
A server implements a method for sending routing information in an Internet exchange point (IXP) network. The server receives control information from a first IXP member via the IXP network and obtains first routing information from the first IXP member via the IXP network, where the control information comprises an identifier of a second IXP member. Based on the first routing information and the control information, the server generates second routing information for the second IXP member, where the second routing information may be identical to the first routing information or a portion of the second IXP member. After the generation, the server sends the second routing information to the second IXP member. With the second routing information, the second IXP member may obtain some routing capability of the first IXP member.
