Welcome to IXP Manager
IXP Manager is the most trusted IXP platform worldwide.
It is a full stack management system for Internet eXchange Points (IXPs) which includes an administration and customer portal; provides end to end provisioning; and both teaches and implements best practice. It allows IXPs to manage new customers, provision new connections / services and monitor traffic usage. It has a number of provisioning templates including its ability to generate secure proven route server configuration and provides a built in looking glass for these.
INEX are pleased to release IXP Manager under an open source license (the GNU Public License V2) which we hope will benefit the wider IXP community, and especially new and small IXPs looking to expand.
