What is IX in Internet?

The European Internet Exchange Association (Euro-IX) defines an Internet Exchange (IX) or Internet Exchange Point (IXP) as a technical facility that enables the interconnection and exchange of Internet traffic between more than two independent Autonomous Systems.

What is an IX port?

IX supports 1G, 10G, and 100G LAG ports with Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) configuration which allows physical circuits between 1 to 16 on a single switch to form a single logical IX port. This enables scaling of bandwidth to meet your needs. Both standard and remote ports can be part of a LAG.

What is IX peering?

An Internet exchange point (IXP) is a physical location through which Internet infrastructure companies such as Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and CDNs connect with each other. These locations exist on the “edge” of different networks, and allow network providers to share transit outside their own network.

What is MegaIX?

Bringing networks together Joining our Internet Exchange, MegaIX and ECIX, gives you access to a shared distributed switching infrastructure that is capable of high-speed, reliable, and low-latency interconnection.

What is PNI in networking?

This sort of connectivity is known as “private peering” or PNI (Private Network Interconnect).

What is regional ISP?

» The regional ISP connects the local ISP’s located in various cities via routers. » If the packet received by regional ISP is for a client connected to this regional ISP, then the packet is delivered; otherwise, packet is sent to the regional ISP’s backbone.

Does megaport provide Internet access?

Solution: Megaport enables direct and dedicated connectivity between data centres and to cloud environments to negate the use of the public internet. This means reliable, secure, and low-latency connections between your main premises and your redundancy environment (whether a second data centre or cloud environment).

What is the network latency target for the IX system?

The IX system, like other Cisco TelePresence systems, has a network latency target of 150ms. This target includes network flight time but does not include codec processing time. For more detailed information about latency requirements for TelePresence systems, see the Cisco TelePresence Network Systems 1.1 Design Guide at:

How does the IX software detect network quality issues?

When the IX software detects changes in network quality in the network, an icon is displayed on the main display screen. When connection quality reaches the poor state, the call is terminated. Table 1-11 describes the call connection status icons that display on the main display.

What is iX operating system?

We present IX, a dataplane operating system that provides high I/O performance, while maintaining the key advantage of strong protection offered by existing kernels. IX uses hardware virtualization to separate management and scheduling functions of the kernel (control plane) from network processing (dataplane).

How many jitter calculations does the IX system perform?

For example, for a 30 fps video stream with a measurement period of 165 ms or 5 frames (instead of 10 seconds and 300 frames), the IX system performs 5 jitter calculations. The Jitter (Period) would be reported as 5 ms (or 1 ms per frame [5 ms/5 frames = 1 ms jitter per frame]).
