Each content provider on Extreme IX has its own peering setup method, service level agreement (SLA), and contact process. Confirm that your target provider is available at your location on the [content providers page](https://extreme-ix.org/members/content-providers), then follow the instructions for that provider below. For Amazon, see [Amazon Bilateral Peering](/ix/extreme-ix/amazon-bilateral-peering). For Microsoft, see [Azure Bilateral Peering](/ix/extreme-ix/azure-bilateral-peering). * **Akamai PNI** -- Provided free from Akamai's public nodes. You receive Akamai PNI prefixes through the Extreme Route Servers. There is no bilateral BGP for Akamai PNI traffic. * **Akamai AANP** -- Paid traffic, provided from nodes installed in Extreme's network. You receive Akamai AANP prefixes through the Extreme Route Servers. Contact your Account Manager to start this traffic, since it is part of the Premium CDN service. There is no bilateral BGP for Akamai AANP traffic. * **DNS requirement** -- Akamai AANP peering depends on DNS. Do not use public DNS (such as `8.8.8.8` or L3 DNS servers). Use your own DNS server and advertise its IP address through your BGP sessions with the Extreme Route Servers. Prolexic, part of Akamai, is a DDoS mitigation service. Peering gives you a short path to offload outbound DDoS traffic and improves proximity to mutual Akamai customers. * **Interconnection details**: * Mumbai -- IPv4 `103.77.109.140`, IPv6 `2001:df2:1900:2::1140` * Chennai -- IPv4 `45.120.251.95`, IPv6 `2001:df2:1900:3::95` * ASN `32787`, AS macro `AS-PROLE` * Suggested max prefixes: 8000 (IPv4) / 800 (IPv6) * **Support and peering contacts**: * Session modification/administrative -- `peering-tix@akamai.com`, +1 617 444-3007 * 24/7 break/fix NOC -- `nocc-tix@akamai.com`, +1 617 444-3007 * **SLA and policy** -- BGP configuration takes up to 10 business days. Akamai Prolexic applies a selective peering policy and can refuse bilateral BGP peering with some members. * **Route Server note** -- Akamai Prolexic (AS32787) is also a Route Server member, so you also learn its routes through your Route Server sessions. * **Setup method** -- Register a request using the Amazon peering portal. * For detailed instructions, see [Amazon Bilateral Peering](/ix/extreme-ix/amazon-bilateral-peering). * **Route Server note** -- Apple is not a Route Server member. You cannot learn Apple's routes through the Extreme IX Route Servers. * **Mandatory requirements** -- Apple only establishes bilateral sessions with members that maintain a fully populated PeeringDB record, including NOC contacts. * **Estimated SLA** -- Up to 2 weeks after you raise the peering request. * **Email request format**: * To: `peering@group.apple.com` * Subject: `Direct Apple Peering over Extreme IX [City Name] for ` * Body: ```text theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-high-contrast","dark":"github-dark-high-contrast"}} Dear Team, We would like to Peer with you over Extreme - IX [City Name] Kindly find the details below: ASN: --> [your AS Number] Network name: --> [Your Network Name] Contact name and email: --> [Contact Details] v4 address: - [your Extreme IX IP] v4 prefix count: --> [all of your prefix counts (number of /24 IP Pools)] NOC contact: --> [your NOC contact details] Link to Peering DB Record --> [Link to your Peering DB record] Kindly please tell us further steps. ``` * **Setup method** -- Send email to `peering@cachefly.com` (NOC contact: `noc@cachefly.com`). * **Policy and requirements** -- CacheFly does not peer with everyone. If you use the Route Servers, CacheFly prefers that you do not also request a bilateral session, since it advertises the same prefixes both ways. * **SLA** -- Less than 2 days for bilateral session establishment. * **Traffic type** -- CDN content, primarily not DNS-sensitive. * **Estimated SLA** -- Up to 1 week after you raise the peering request. * **Email request format**: * To: `peering@opendns.com` * Subject: `Direct Cisco Umbrella Peering over Extreme IX [City Name] for ` * Body: ```text theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-high-contrast","dark":"github-dark-high-contrast"}} Dear Team, We would like to Peer with you over Extreme - IX [City Name] Kindly find the details below: ASN: --> [your AS Number] Network name: --> [Your Network Name] Contact name and email: --> [Contact Details] v4 address: - [this is your Extreme IX IP] v4 prefix count: --> [all of your prefix counts (number of /24 IP Pools)] NOC contact: --> [your NOC contact details] Link to Peering DB Record --> [Link to your Peering DB record] Kindly please tell us further steps. ``` * **Estimated SLA** -- 1 to 2 business days after you raise the peering request. * **Email request format**: * To: `peering@cira.ca` * Subject: `Direct CIRA Bilateral Peering over Extreme IX [City Name] for ` * Body: ```text theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-high-contrast","dark":"github-dark-high-contrast"}} Dear CIRA team, We would like to Peer with you over Extreme - IX in [City Name] Kindly find the details below: ASN: -> [your AS Number] Network name: -> [Your Network Name] Contact name and email: --> [Contact Details] v4 address: - [this is your Extreme IX IP] v4 prefix count: -> [all of your prefix counts (number of /24 IP Pools)] NOC contact: -> [your noc contact details] Kindly please tell us further steps. ``` * **Estimated SLA** -- 2 to 3 weeks after you raise the peering request. * Public peering is automated through the [Cloudflare Peering Portal](https://peering.cloudflare.com/). We recommend establishing sessions in all mutual locations.
