Reliable networking.
Smart IT.

Barbonetworks operates AS218772 from Amsterdam — built for fast, stable and reliable routing, with redundant full-table transit and direct peering at nine exchange points across Europe and South America. The focus is the shortest path between Europe and Brazil: we peer in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro rather than hand South American traffic to a detour through North America. Own address space in both families — a provider-independent IPv6 /48 and a legacy IPv4 /24 — RPKI-signed and IRR-registered.

The network

Transit and peering both terminate on a single edge router in Amsterdam, which originates both prefixes and carries a full table in each family.

Transit

Full-table IPv4 and IPv6 transit over a redundant upstream pair at NorthC Amsterdam.

Open peering policy

We peer with anyone, at any of our exchanges, with no minimum traffic and no contract. Sessions run over IPv6 at every exchange, and over IPv4 at Frys-IX and EVIX, where we hold an address on the peering LAN.
