Route Servers
The Vienna Internet eXchange offers a redundant set of route servers, which eases peering configuration. The route servers just provide routing information, payload traffic is exchanged directly between the participants. After establishing a BGP session to both route servers and activating them in the web interface, participants may configure default behavior individually and specific per-peer settings using a pleasant web interface for both, IPv4 and IPv6 peerings.
If configured accordingly, traffic will be exchanged automatically also with new participants who have selected an open peering behavior.
