FCR is not doing ECMP
I have an FCR connected to one OCI connection and two AWS connections. From AWS to OCI, passing through FCR, I see that AWS is implementing ECMP towards OCI prefixes, as evidenced by the RX traffic on the FCR coming from these two connections. In FCR active routes, I am seeing the same prefixes learned from these two AWS connections. If I look at the contrary (TX) from FCR to AWS (from traffic that originated in OCI), I always see TX to AWS using only one AWS connection, never the other one. Support says that it is not working because OCI has only one connection to FCR. As far as I know, ECMP is implemented hop by hop, and it is a local decision implemented independently at each router (hop) in the network, that is why I do not agree with this statement. For me is the function of FCR implement ECMP in this case for these packets coming from OCI to AWS.396Views1like2CommentsRouter maintenance notice to IX peers
Hello Equinix Community, Apologies in advance if this is a repeated question but my search didn't find any relevant topics. We have upgrade planned for our router in Chicago which is connected to Equinix IX. What is the best method of informing IX participants about the maintenance activity? We have a lot of peers on the IX so informing them individually will be very cumbersome. Thanks400Views0likes3CommentsThe Future of AI: Which Trend is Your Game- Changer?

We currently have a copper bandwidth connection at the data center (in a cabient) and are looking to increase the available bandwidth. Could you assist with the steps invovled in ordering? From reading past forums does it involve ordering a new connection? Thanks for your expertise.357Views0likes1CommentProgrammatically Retrieve Colocation Users
Essentially what the title says. I'm attempting to programmatically get the list of colocation users and their roles/permissions. It doesn't appear there's an easy way to do this with the existing API. That said, when I view my users in the portal ordinarily, I see GET /api/ecp/users/getUsers So it's definitely there, I'm assuming it's just not available to normal users, only to Equinix internally. Any chance someone here has an idea?317Views1like1CommentEquinix DC – moving from copper to fiber + IP address ordering headaches
i everyone, We’re at an Equinix datacenter and moving from copper to fiber. And ordering some new IP addresses. Couple of things tripping me up: Ordering fiber vs copper cross connects through the portal isn’t super clear. Help desk isn't able to help Has anyone done a copper → fiber migration at Equinix recently? How did you order it (portal, ticket, account manager)? Cheers423Views0likes3Comments
