How IP Transit Works
Epsilon’s IP Transit provides a robust and efficient network infrastructure that seamlessly connects your organisation to the global internet, guaranteeing top-tier performance and reliability. At the core of our routing system lies the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), facilitating efficient data flow.
Your network actively participates by advertising its IP address prefixes via Epsilon route reflectors. Epsilon constructs a routing table based on these advertisements, enabling efficient traffic routing to and from your network through the Epsilon network. This entire process operates under established Service Level Agreements (SLAs) that define service terms, performance guarantees, and pricing, ensuring a reliable and transparent partnership.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is IP Transit?
IP Transit is a service that empowers network operators, internet service providers (ISPs), and enterprises by facilitating the seamless connection of their networks to the worldwide internet infrastructure. This service enables the exchange of internet traffic with other networks and grants access to content hosted on servers distributed throughout the vast expanse of the internet.
2. What are the benefits of using IP Transit?
IP Transit is a valuable service that provides a range of benefits that are essential for modern businesses and network operators. It offers global connectivity, reliability, scalability, and performance optimisation for organisations seeking to connect to the internet.
3. What is the difference between IP Transit and Peering?
IP Transit is a paid service provided by ISPs to connect one network to another on the internet. Peering, on the other hand, is often without financial transaction and involves a mutual exchange of traffic between networks. The choice between IP Transit and peering depends on an organisation’s specific needs, cost considerations, and network architecture. Many organisations use a combination of both methods to optimise their internet connectivity, balancing mutual exchange and paid transit to meet their needs.
4. What is the difference between IP Transit and Dedicated Internet Access?
Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) and IP Transit are both services that offer internet connectivity, but they vary in terms of their scope and functionality. Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) offers exclusive and dedicated internet connectivity to individual customers or organisations, providing them with dedicated bandwidth, consistent performance, and control over their connection. In contrast, IP Transit primarily serves to interconnect networks and route data across the internet. It’s worth noting that IP Transit is typically available to carriers with Autonomous Systems (AS) running on BGP, whereas businesses in need of internet access, but lacking AS and BGP capabilities, often opt for DIA as a more accessible alternative.
