Tullamarine, VICTORIA - Internet Exchanges by Location Address


Tullamarine, VICTORIA - Networks by Internet Exchange

Networks (ASN’s) are listed as “accessible” via an IX. Accessibility is on a VLAN basis. This does not imply that the networks are physically present in the Facility. To know if a network accessible on an IX is also physically present in the same Facility as the IX, see the "AS Network Accessibility by Facility" table below this table.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many internet exchanges are there in Tullamarine?

There are currently 1 internet exchanges accessible from 1 interconnection facilities in Tullamarine.

What networks peer at internet exchanges in Tullamarine?

There are 131 unique networks (ASNs) peering at internet exchanges in Tullamarine. The largest IX, MegaIX Melbourne, connects 131 networks.

Why is Tullamarine important for network interconnection?

Tullamarine hosts 1 interconnection facilities with 1 internet exchanges, making it a notable hub for network peering and data exchange.

What is an Internet Exchange?

An Internet Exchange (IX or IXP) is a physical location where multiple networks connect to exchange traffic directly, rather than routing through third parties. This reduces costs, improves performance, and lowers latency for end users.

IXPs are typically housed in carrier-neutral data centers where no single network has control — creating a level playing field for all participants. Networks connect via switches and exchange traffic through peering agreements.

Why does internet exchange location matter?

The physical location of Internet Exchanges directly impacts network performance, cost, and resilience for nearby users and businesses:

  • Latency: Local IXs reduce the distance data must travel, improving response times
  • Cost: Direct peering at local IXs reduces transit costs for ISPs
  • Resilience: Multiple local interconnection points prevent single points of failure
  • Economic development: IXs attract network investment and digital businesses to a region

Regions without Internet Exchanges often see their traffic "tromboned" through distant cities, adding latency and cost.

Why are internet exchanges important for AI inference?

Real-time inference and edge inference workloads require the lowest possible latency to deliver instant responses. Internet exchanges provide direct peering between networks, minimizing the number of network hops and reducing round-trip time.

This is critical for real-time inference applications like conversational AI and autonomous vehicles, as well as edge inference deployments that process data closer to end users rather than in centralized cloud data centers.

What is the source of this data?

All data on this page is sourced from PeeringDB, a freely available database of networks and interconnection facilities maintained by the global network operator community.

PeeringDB data is self-reported by network operators and facility owners, and is updated continuously. Our data is refreshed nightly.
