The exchange

What is STLIX?

STLIX is a switching fabric located in America's Gateway to the West. A network may connect and peer, putting themselves closer to content caching while also improving local network connectivity.

Bilateral peering

Establish direct peering with other STLIX members over the exchange at no charge.

Multilateral peering

Peer with our route server to exchange routes with many neighbors at once.

Private VLAN

Private VLANs are available for those requiring a private network with another STLIX member.

Remote peering

STLIX is directly connected to other IXPs. This enables us to offer remote peering services to them.
