AMS-IX Deploys NetIron MLX-32 AMS-IX Deploys NetIron MLX-32
 
... to provide their multifaceted infrastructure with long-term scalability, simplified network management and protection for their long-term equipment investment.

Monday, December 10, 2007:  The Amsterdam Internet Exchange (AMS-IX) has selected Foundry Networks' NetIron MLX-32 metro routers. Foundry Networks enabled AMS-IX to manage steady bandwidth growth at the Exchange since its inception 10 years ago. To manage the bandwidth increase at the core of their network, AMS-IX deployed the NetIron MLX-32 metro routing and switching platform to address the needs of capacity intensive L2/IPv4/IPv6 networks offering a 3.2 Tbps data capacity.
Apart from the switching features AMS-IX utilises, the NetIron MLX-32 delivers a suite of advanced routing and MPLS services to address a wide range of applications. It also features packet scheduling and quality of service (QoS) up to 500,000 queues per system for supporting converged services. Combined with its hardware resiliency and hitless software failover and upgrade capabilities, it will offer AMS-IX the ideal vehicle for powering their rapid growth and expanding their broad peering service portfolio that already includes VoIP peering, global GPRS roaming exchange, mobile data exchange and multicast peering.

According to Job Witteman, chief executive officer, AMS-IX, “With high-definition video transfers and other high bandwidth applications growing in popularity with consumers via the Internet, it will likely keep our growth in the 100 per cent range year-over-year. I see no reason to believe that capacity growth will be any slower than what we’ve experienced in the past, meaning we could be running close to an unparalleled terabit per second by the end of 2008.”

Witteman continued, “Another development that influences the traffic growth is the maturation of children of the digital generation. As they embark in their professional careers, they are already accustomed to being online all the time, especially with the new Web 2.0 applications. We will potentially see traffic patterns shift to higher volumes, thus defining more critical infrastructure needs.”
