ISC hosts a variety of community resources in its facilities in Northern California. Network operators can improve the reliability and performance of their network access to these resources by peering with ISC at the PAIX and Equinix locations in the San Francisco Bay Area/Silicon Valley.
ISC is also engaged in a project to deploy numerous instances of the F-root nameserver using an anycast routing technique. These remote instances are usually deployed close to exchange points, and network operators are welcome to peer with us there to increase their visibility of (and improve their access to) the F root nameserver.
Peering Policy
ISC operates an open peering policy. ISC reserves the right to discontinue peering with other organisations which do not respond appropriately to reports of network abuse, or to organisations which do not follow the technical guidelines for propagation of the F-Root service supernet, as described below.

Routing Policy
Networks that filter based on Routing Registry objects should use AS<peer asn>:AS-SET as the filter object. For instance if you peer with ISC AS 30132 in Amsterdam use AS30132:AS-SET to filter that session.
ISC operates Global Nodes for the F-root nameserver service in San Jose California, Palo Alto California, Chicago Illinois, New York City New York, and Atlanta Georgia; all inside of AS1280 and advertise 192.5.4.0/23 to the entire Internet. ISC provides hosting and transit for public benefit and non-profit projects and services.
All other nodes are Local Nodes for F-root. Local Nodes advertise F's 192.5.5.0/24 to peers with the well-known community string attribute no-export set. This is done to prevent accidental transit of F-root service supernet; each Local Node is only intended to serve a local community of networks. It is not appropriate for 192.5.5.0/24 to be propagated for transit except by prior arrangement with ISC.
Network operators having a requirement to apply differing policy should contact noc@isc.organd explain their requirements, so that suitable arrangements can be made.
