Planning dump area

EMF seems so far away... We have plenty of time to plan, don't we???

High level overview

A few of us network geeks thought we didn't already have enough to do. So naturally we decided to run an internet exchange in 2026. Below is a thrown together list of goals (wishes??).

  • Provide local peering between existing networks.
  • Provide local peering using private ranges for those who don't have public ranges.
  • Public ASN's preferred but we welcome private as.
  • Transit to the internet (GRE tunnels to bare metal servers in London).
  • Fully dual stack with a preference towards IPv6. We have a large public IPv6 block we can sub allocate.
  • Locally available services; grafana, looking glass, ticket systems etc etc.
  • Take care to ensure that we do not interfere with on site EMF network.
