CoreSite owns and operates Any2, the nation's second largest Internet peering exchange, featuring nearly 200 participants in California alone.
Any2 participants may connect over a variety of port speeds including 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, and 10 Gbps. The California switch features a dual-core set-up for increased reliability and improved network disaster recovery configuration.
CoreSite's Internet peering exchange may be accessed from any CoreSite data center, with regional exchanges accessible in California and the Northeast (Boston, New York, Washington DC). Regional Internet peering exchanges offer easy connectivity to a larger number of participants at multiple CoreSite locations.
Any2 is a layer 2, IPv6-supporting, physical network switch that facilitates the exchange of Internet traffic between Internet service providers (ISPs) and content networks.
CoreSite customers utilizing Any2 will negotiate peering agreements directly with the desired network(s), order their interconnection from CoreSite, and then begin exchanging IP traffic locally or internationally.
Customers must have connectivity to the global Internet and a registered Autonomous System (AS) Number from a Regional Internet Registry such as ARIN or RIPE to peer on Any2.
Customers may select Any2Easy, CoreSite's route-server offering, that allows one network to instantly establish more than 100 unique peering relationships without the cost or the hassle of executing individual agreements.
Any2Easy offers an average of 25,000 available routes at any given time.
CoreSite customers order Any2 ports with ease, 24-hours a day via the HTTPS-encrypted MyCoreSite customer portal.
