Route Servers

NL-ix operates two Route Servers on the IPv4 peering LAN.

Route Server advantages
Peering with the route servers makes exchanging traffic easy: you do not need to setup and maintain separate peering sessions with all NL-ix members.

Every route server participant automatically receives all prefixes of all other participants. IPv6 is not yet available, but planned when IPv6 usage picks up.

Route Server setup
Configure two BGP sessions on your side with the information below:
- AS Number AS34307;
- Route server 1: 193.239.116.255;
- Route server 2: 193.239.117.0;
- Allow for at least 10.000 routes.

Once the sessions are set up, contact support@nl-ix.net to get the sessions activated on our side.
