Peering Policy

Clearfly Communications (Clearfly) has an open peering policy and evaluates all potential peers on a case-by-case basis.

  • Under no circumstances will Clearfly peer with an existing transit customer.

  • Peers are expected to filter their sessions to reject unauthorized BGP announcements.

  • Peers are expected to aggregate routes as much as possible. Clearfly will not accept any announcement longer than /24.

  • Peers must not utilize any form of default route or gateway of last resort that is directed at Clearfly.

  • If possible, Clearfly prefers to implement MD5 authentication on BGP peering sessions.

  • If possible, Clearfly typically prefers to utilize routes learned via a route server in lieu of establishing direct peering sessions.

  • Clearfly reserves the right to suspend peering for an indefinite period of time should any abuse originate from a peer. This includes, but is not limited to:

    • Exceeding configured maximum route filters

    • Any form of DoS attack

    • Unsolicited bulk email (spam)

    • Default route directed at Clearfly Communications

  • Clearfly also reserves the right to suspend peering due to service-affecting instability of peer devices or routes
