Equinix provides the capability to create an online Letter of Authorization (LOA) by using the Digital LOA Manager. Users can enter information online to generate an LOA quickly and accurately to distribute for efficient approval process.
As a result, an Equinix Digital Letter of Authorization (DiLOA) enables you to create secure and efficient authorization for your A-side partner to create a connection inside an IBX data center. A DiLOA is a digital document which replaces letters of authorization that were created manually. Users create DiLOAs by submitting an online form through the Digital LOA Manager.
