Our network utilizes routing and switching products from Juniper Networks and
Cisco Systems, the leaders in the industry. We utilize Juniper M20 and M5 routers
as border routers, Cisco 6509 (SUP720) switches as our distribution switches,
and Cisco 2950/2960 switches in our aggregation/customer layer. Additional
network equipment includes DDoS mitigation hardware on each of our incoming
carriers, allowing us to mitigate multi-gigabit DoS/DDoSattacks. In addition,
10 Gigabit Ethernet is used at the core of the network to reduce the risks
of internal congestion due to DDoS attacks and to maintain optimal flexibility.
Our network is fully meshed, using BGP, and redundant with a wide selection
of backbone providers. We took care in choosing our carriers; our research
showed them to be some of the fastest and most reliable networks available.
Not only are the providers redundant, but their entry paths are redundant as
well. Some carriers are brought into the network at Equinix and carried down
three floors to our data center over redundant 10 Gigabit Ethernet lines while
several pairs of fiber also conect us to provider in the building Meet-Me Room
(MMR). In the building there is also fiber from dozens of other companies such
as Global Crossing, Abovenet, Qwest, and Sprint. Internal Network
