Boost cloud connectivity with the Cloud ROUTER’s latest features

The DE-CIX Cloud ROUTER is an easy-to-deploy routing service that allows you to establish private Layer 3 connectivity between public and private clouds. You can route traffic across your multi-cloud network efficiently and at scale to achieve optimal performance, security, and control.  

This month we are happy to announce new features designed to give you greater control, flexibility, and reach.  

Introducing BGP policy attachments 

The simplified BGP traffic engineering with prefix lists and filters offer you 

  • Effortless creation and management of policies: Define prefix lists with prefix match and min/max length, and order them with precision.
  • Enhanced control: Adjust local preferences and AS-path prepends with filters like accept, reject, or continue.
  • Intuitive interface: Our upgraded UI and new widgets make creating and applying policies to your network services (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Oracle, or VirtualPNI) simple and straightforward.
