Why peer with us

Faster paths, lower costs, better routing

Direct peering takes the middleman out of the path. Your traffic crosses one exchange port to ours and is on the destination network — no Tier-1 detours, no surprise transit bills.

Lower latency

Bypass intermediate transit networks. Traffic between peers hops directly across the exchange fabric — often single-digit milliseconds inside the UK.

Reduced transit cost

Settlement-free peering offloads a large share of traffic from paid transit, lowering 95th-percentile bills as your volumes grow.

Resilient routing

Multiple peering and transit paths mean a fibre cut, a peer outage or a transit issue is rerouted automatically by BGP.

Route control

Influence inbound and outbound paths with BGP communities, AS-PATH prepending and per-prefix policy — your routing, your rules.

Global reach

Over 500 settlement-free peers plus full-table Tier-1 transit gives you reach to every routable network on the public internet.

Always-on DDoS

Inbound traffic is scrubbed by 600Gbps Corero SmartWall at the edge — peers, transit and customers all benefit by default.

Exchange fabrics

Present at every fabric that matters in the UK

We're members of LINX and LONAP with diverse fabric on independent hardware, so a problem on one switch never takes down your peering with us.

  • Dual LINX fabrics (LON1 Juniper, LON2 diverse)
  • LONAP for UK eyeball ISP and CDN reach
  • PNIs on request in London and Cambridge

LINX LON1

London, UK

Primary public peering fabric — Juniper-based, the largest UK IXP.

LINX LON2

London, UK

Diverse second LINX fabric on independent hardware for fail-over.

LONAP

London, UK

Member-owned UK exchange — strong reach into eyeball ISPs and CDNs.

Private Network Interconnects

London & Cambridge

Direct cross-connects on request for high-volume bilateral peering.

Ways to peer with AS48825

Public, private or customer BGP — your choice

Pick the interconnection model that fits your traffic profile. We'll help you size, filter and tune the session.

Public peering

Bilateral BGP sessions over LINX or LONAP — quickest to turn up. Drop us a PeeringDB request and we'll typically agree within one business day.

Private peering (PNI)

Dedicated cross-connects for high-volume flows where the exchange fabric isn't the right place for the traffic. 1G, 10G and 100G available.

Customer BGP

Bring your own ASN and PI space and run eBGP with AS48825 over your cross-connect or DIA. Communities, prepending and blackhole supported.

RTBH & DDoS signalling

Remotely Triggered Black Hole community plus flowspec on request — surgically drop attack traffic at our edge before it reaches your kit.

Peering policy

Open, filtered and MANRS-aligned

We keep peering simple. If your IRR / RPKI data is current and you keep a tidy table, we'll peer with you — no ratios, no exclusivity clauses, no paperwork drama.

Full technical details, contacts and addresses are published on PeeringDB AS48825.

  • Open peering policy — we peer with anyone who keeps a clean, filtered table
  • IRR / RPKI-validated prefix filters on every session, no exceptions
  • MD5 password optional but supported on all sessions
  • BFD available on request for sub-second convergence
  • Max-prefix limits set sensibly above your current advertised count
  • 24/7 NOC monitoring — sessions are watched, not just configured
Turn-up process

A session up inside a working day

Most public peering requests are configured the same UK business day they arrive. No long forms, no committee approvals.

1. Find us on PeeringDB

We're AS48825 on PeeringDB with full IPv4/IPv6 addresses on every fabric and up-to-date contacts.

2. Request a session

Email peering@fast2host.com or open a peering request in your portal. Tell us your ASN, expected prefixes and which fabric you'd like to peer on.

3. We configure & filter

We build the session against your IRR / RPKI data, apply sensible max-prefix limits, and confirm the configuration for your side.

4. Session up & monitored

BGP comes up, prefixes are exchanged, monitoring starts. You'll see lower latency and improved paths to the new peer immediately.
