AS29535 is used by route servers only to establish BGP sessions and is removed from BGP paths broadcast to open peering participants.

Private peering

Establishing direct traffic exchange with content providers present on the TPIX platform allows you to significantly increase traffic in open peering, improve the quality and reduce the costs of purchasing transit services. Proximity to content sources and the ability to use them is also of great importance to the end user.

We are constantly increasing the number and quality of sources on the TPIX platform. Some of them do not use connections to RS (Route Server) TPIX, so their traffic does not automatically appear on your connection to TPIX open peering.

To exchange traffic with a given content provider, it is necessary to establish a private BGP session with it, in accordance with its peering policy. We set up sessions based on the same VLAN open peering, where – as a TPIX participant – you have a BGP session with TPIX Route Servers and exchange traffic with typical TPIX participants.

How to set up private peering?

  • Correctly register or verify your network description (ASN) in Peering DB.

  • Create or verify a route record in the RIPE Database to link your prefixes to your ASN.

  • Create or verify an AS-SET record in the RIPE database to list all the ASNs whose prefixes you want to broadcast.

  • Prepare your ASN and IPv4 and IPv6 addresses at the TPIX interface, which you will send to the peering partner so that it knows with whom to establish a BGP session.

  • Send an email or fill out the form according to the rules listed next to it and appropriate for the given provider (for Microsoft via Azure account, for Google via form, etc.), providing all the information from the points above and requesting to establish a peering session in TPIX (ASN 29535).

Internet.world/TPNET

Internet.world AS5617 is a Tier-2 transit service that has Telia AS1299 and Open Transit AS5511 as traffic sources.

It provides direct peering with AS5617, but with bandwidth of traffic towards this ASN limited to 50%.

For higher bandwidth limits, there are dedicated TPNET peering services with a different pricing model, but with the same community, looking glass, etc.
