Serializable, Comparable<PeeringPolicy>, Constable
public enum PeeringPolicy extends Enum<PeeringPolicy>
Peering policy classification from PeeringDB's policy_general field.

A network's peering policy dramatically affects whether peering can be established. Two networks at the same Equinix IX may be unable to peer if one has a RESTRICTIVE policy requiring traffic minimums or geographic coverage.

  • OPEN - Will peer with anyone who requests it. Easiest to establish.
  • SELECTIVE - Evaluates peering requests on a case-by-case basis. May require minimum traffic or presence in multiple locations.
  • RESTRICTIVE - Has strict requirements for peering (traffic ratios, contracts, geographic presence). Most difficult to establish.
  • NO - Does not peer. Only reachable via transit or private connectivity (e.g., Fabric).
