Welcome at VIX!
The Vienna Internet eXchange (VIX) is a neutral, redundant, high-performance, high-availability Internet Exchange Point (IXP) with about 150 national and international participants, mainly from the Central and Eastern European Region. Details
VIX Next Generation in operation
The Vienna Internet eXchange is running on a completely new hardware platform since 18 May 2021 (3:30 UTC). The new VIX hardware has a significantly higher capacity than the previous one. In particular, the number of available 100 Gbps ports has been greatly increased. Furthermore, the design of the new platform simplifies future upgrades.
The transition was successfully handled in three maintenance windows from 11-18 May 2021 during ongoing operations. Outages were limited to 2-10 minutes per particapant port. We are particularly pleased that the new hardware reduces our peering infrastructure's energy consumption by around 80 %. Therefore, we are perfectly equipped for the coming years!
