SUMMARY
Customers need an "install" status to allow them to configure with a peeringdb login before being listed publicly with the "connected" status. Right now, "connected" is the only way to enable peeringdb logins.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Configure a customer status as anything other than "connected". They will not be able to login with peeringdb.
IMPORTANCE
It would be convenient in the sense that unconnected customers could be configured before being listed as participants to the rest of the customers.
