Supported Fabric Configurations
Equinix Internet Access offers Fabric users a virtual connection to the Internet.
A remote port can be used by customers who aren’t co-located in an IBX data center, but instead, use network service providers (NSPs) with Equinix Fabric to connect from their location to an IBX.
The following diagram shows two configurations using Internet Access to connect to remote Fabric ports. The customer on the left side of the diagram uses their own IP addresses, and the customer on the right uses IP addresses assigned by Equinix.
Prerequisites
-
You must have an active Fabric port.
-
Your organization must be onboarded to an Equinix CRH/AM Identity and Access Management (IAM) platform.
- Admins must be assigned the Fabric Manager role to order the resources.
- Users must be assigned the Fabric Viewer role to view resources.
-
You cannot use a billing account that requires a purchase order (PO). Currently, billing accounts that require POs (also known as PO bearing accounts) can’t be used to place orders for Internet Access with Fabric.
