Our Network

The IXPN network is a layer-2 infrastructure on two separate switch fabric across IXPN locations. Currently operating locations are:


  • Nitel Colo (NET House) - Lagos Island
  • Medallion Colo - Victoria Island

Each location has two foundry switches connecting separate peering LANs. The primary peering LAN is interconnected on a 1 gigabit circuit (fibre), while the secondary peering LAN is interconnected on a 450 megabit wireless backhaul.

Two of the three operating locations have route servers in place.

All the IXPN switches provide 10/100BaseTX switched ethernet and 1000BaseSX gigabit ethernet over multimode fibre connections.
