We have an open peering policy subject to the following requirements:
Requirements

- Complete, updated, and accurate PeeringDB profile containing:
- NOC email address
- Prefix limits for IPv4/IPv6
- IRR as-set (we filter peer routes based on valid IRR objects)
- Network router capable of running BGP
- Only send traffic destined for prefixes announced by AS1050 or downstreams of AS1050
- Only advertise prefixes originated or originated by downstreams
- No default route or the use static routes that are not authorized in writing
- Peering partner must adhere to the requirements of any applicable Internet Exchange
We encourage peering wherever reasonable as it contributes to our experimentation. Please contact us for coordination.
