We provide a virtual machine at the IX location with the IX LAN interface pre-configured. You only need to set up BGP to start peering.
Requirements: Real ASN · Personal or non-profit network · Mainland China applicants must complete KYC (automated via Stripe Identity) · Must register an account first
B. Tunnel Access
Connect to the IX LAN from your own server via GRE or WireGuard tunnel. Suitable for networks with existing infrastructure.
Requirements: Real ASN · Reachable public IP · Must register an account first
Application process: Register an account at yunzheng.space, then submit a peering request via HelpCentre with your ASN and preferred access method.
