Deploy an ix42 Route Server in your connected IX
Prerequisites
You need access to an IX with multiple dn42 participants and the capability to host a dedicated VM or container for the RS.
1
Assign an ASN
Allocate an ASN for the Route Server (either a private ASN or a dedicated dn42 ASN for IX services).
2
Configure the RS
Set up a robust BGP daemon (e.g., BIRD) using tools like Arouteserver. Enforce dn42 ROA checks, strict filtering, and max prefix limits.
