Peering with the route servers is easy. Setup your side with the information below and contact us on support@nl-ix.net to active the session on our side.

AS Number: 34307
Route server 1: 193.239.116.255
Route server 2: 193.239.117.0

Looking Glasses of NL-ix members

With a looking glass you can see what view a specific BGP router has on the Internet routing table.

Test download files of NL-ix members

Some NL-ix connected parties provide anonymous public access to test data files (random content) which can be used for debug pruposes (testing performance and checking delay and packetloss during substantial load):

NL-ix Live! Participants and IP's
Experimental Multicast VLAN for Audio and Video multicasting

For NL-ix Live! the IP range 194.246.39.224/27 has been reserved to be used as multicast router source IP. RFC2770 (GLOP addressing) is used to calculate the standard reserved range of destination IP addresses for each participant (AS number).

One can use the Decimal-Binary conversion tool to translate the AS number into 16 (left padded) binary and translate the high and low order octets back into decimal to be used as the middle two parts of the standard IP address range (233.0.0.0/8).

The following IP addresses have been assigned to NL-ix Live! participants:
