Network Details

🔢

AS401640

Our own autonomous system number, with ARIN-assigned IPv4 and IPv6 allocations. Your VPS IPs are from space we own, not re-sold from a third party.

🚀

Juniper MX Core

Enterprise Juniper MX series routers handle all routing and traffic engineering. The same gear used by large carriers — not consumer-grade equipment.

1.6 Tbps Upstream

Transit and peering through NTT, TATA, Cogent, and Ninja-IX Phoenix. Multiple providers mean no single point of failure for connectivity.

Low Latency

Phoenix is well-connected to the western US, and Ninja-IX peering reduces hops for regional traffic. Check the Looking Glass to run your own tests.

🔒

DDoS Mitigation

Network-level traffic filtering through our upstream providers. Severe or sustained attacks are handled via nullrouting to protect shared infrastructure.
