The Amateur Radio Internet Exchange (ARIX)[3] is an Internet exchange point[4] with core infrastructure in Fremont, California, USA. Its switched fabric is located at the Hurricane Electric's Fremont[5] datacenter in suite 1400. The ARIX is an educational and research network used to connect ham radio operators by providing licensed Amateur Radio enthusiasts a free fabric to inter-connect experimental IP networks. ARIX's routers are attached to a 10 Gbps fiber fabric. A pair of BGP route servers run the Bird Internet routing daemon (BIRD). The ARIX infrastructure is obtained from sponsors, volunteers and donations.[6] ARIX's FCC Call Sign license is N7ARX [7]

Technology[edit]

ARIX's core consists of an Arista Networks 7048T and a CISCO Nexus 5548 with two FEX switches in the Fremont California Datacenter.[8] Peer connectivity is available at 1 Gbit/s Ethernet (RJ45 copper) & 10 Gbit/s Ethernet (10G-LR Single-mode optical fiber).[9] Connections are also available via 802.11 wireless in Portland, Oregon and Flagstaff, Arizona. IPv4 connectivity is established via the 44.190.42.0/24 Net44 allocation. IPv6 peering is available using the 2a0e:8f00:fddd::/64 subnet donated by Openfactory.[6][10] Maximum transmission unit is 1500-bytes for this network.

History[edit]

ARIX Internet Exchange Point (IXP) was founded in February 2020. It started as a learning environment between a hand full of Amateur Radio Operators using virtual tunnels, including network architects Adam Lewis (KC7GDY)[11] and Nate Sales (KJ7DMC). As interest grew, a more permanent solution was needed. Hurricane Electric offered a three-year contract for a discounted rack.[12]

Dedicated Autonomous system numbers (ASN)s were obtained and AMPRNet granted a /24 of IP addresses were granted from the Net44 allocation.[13]

Currently there are 8 members with 10 ASNs peering at the network:
