The references our own engineers use, published so you do not have to ask for them.
Working with AS216265
BGP community reference
Every large community we accept and send: informational tags, geographic limiters, prepending, per-exchange and per-upstream control, and the blackhole community.
Community referenceIRR and RPKI policy
What we expect in the routing registries before we build a session, how our filters are generated, and what happens to RPKI invalids on our edge.
Routing policyLooking glass
Check how we see a prefix, from which of our routers, and over which path, before you raise a ticket about it.

LOA templates
Letters of authorisation for cross connects, ready to complete and sign. Send us your facility's own format and we will fill it in instead.
LOA templatesNetwork and facilities
The map, the full facility list by metro, the exchanges we peer at and the private interconnects we hold.
NetworkPeeringDB record
Our authoritative entry for facilities, exchange ports, contacts and peering policy. If the two ever disagree, PeeringDB is the one we keep current.
