Peering Policy – AS214402
AS214402 operates an open peering policy focused on delivering reliable, secure, and low-latency routing to its partners and customers. Our approach is based on technical transparency, routing best practices, and operational responsibility.
🔧 Technical Requirements
- The peer must operate a globally routable ASN and support BGPv4.
- Both IPv4 and IPv6 sessions are expected to be established at each shared exchange point.
- The peer should have sufficient capacity and redundancy to exchange traffic without congestion.
- Prefix filtering must be based on IRR or RPKI-valid data.
🛰️ Routing Policy
- AS214402 announces all prefixes originating from its ASN and downstream clients, fully registered in RADb or equivalent IRRs.
- We discard all received MEDs (Multi Exit Discriminators).
- We encourage the use of BGP communities to tag route origin, geographical scope, or blackhole requests.
- Peers must set reasonable
max-prefix limits per session, aligned with our PeeringDB entry.
- We do not accept default routes or static routes not learned via BGP.
- RPKI validation is performed in real-time; invalid routes may be filtered or rejected without notice.
⚙️ Operational Requirements
- Peers must maintain a 24x7 NOC contact with valid corporate email and phone number listed in PeeringDB.
- We do not accept NOC contacts hosted on free email providers (Gmail, Yahoo, etc.).
- Peers are expected to respond promptly to routing/security issues or abuse originating from their networks.
📡 Exchange & Direct Peering
- We peer at multiple IXPs and expect mutual participation at shared locations.
- Ports should be upgraded once traffic regularly exceeds 50% of capacity.
- Direct peering links are accepted over 10G or 100G fiber where feasible.
📈 Traffic Guidelines
- We do not enforce minimum traffic levels for public peering.
- For consistent traffic exceeding 1 Gbps, we recommend exploring private/direct interconnection.
