Peers of AS8

0 peers

AS8 has no peers recorded.

Peering is a direct, often free, traffic exchange between Autonomous Systems (ASNs). They share routes only to their own networks and customers, making connections faster and cheaper for that specific traffic, without providing full internet access to each other.

Upstreams of AS8

4 upstreams

AS302 AS4557 AS40187 AS133317

AS8 uses these Autonomous Systems as its upstreams.

An upstream (or transit provider) is another AS that AS8 pays for full internet connectivity, allowing it to reach all global destinations and be reachable by them.

Downstreams of AS8

2 downstreams

AS1700 AS25944

AS8 provides internet connectivity to these downstream Autonomous Systems.

A downstream is a customer Autonomous System that pays another AS (its provider) for internet access. The provider AS carries the downstream's traffic and makes its network reachable.
