Capacity

From one of the world's leading AS numbers, delivered over a geographic all extensive in house controlled DWDM system, well peered and interconnected with premium global IP networks. RETN can provide Internet services worldwide at any desired bandwidth with the highest direct connectivity.

We also offer a range of supplementary DDoS protection methods to enhance service availability: Extended Blackhole, FlowSpec and DDoS Mitigation. All protection methods are described under&nbsp;RETN <a href="/products/ddos-protection" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">DDoS Protection Services.</a>

RETN have implemented and deployed routing policies using RPKI Origin Validation: this means that AS9002 no longer accepts or redistributes BGP route announcements considered “invalid” under Origin Validation process (<a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6811" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">RFC 6811</a>).RPKI Origin Validation is an additional level of security for our BGP Customers and Peering Partners, which highly reduces the impact of BGP route hijacks and BGP misconfigurations.RETN is also a member of <a href="https://www.manrs.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MANRS</a>, a global community of security-minded organizations committed to making global routing infrastructure more robust and secure.

RETN Ethernet and VPN services are available at various port speeds starting from 1Mbps to 10Gbps as standard. Customers can also bundle multiple services using a single interface, taking advantage of our <a href="/solutions/one-port" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">One Port solution</a>. Higher bandwidth requirements, i.e. 100G port capacity, are available upon request, please contact us for further information.

RETN Ethernet services are a family of network technologies enabling the deployment of Virtual Private Networks.&nbsp;

RETN introduces a more efficient way to deliver VPN services to remote locations without the need of a last mile transport service: clients are able to use Internet Access as a network overlay to connect to the nearest RETN&nbsp;Gate&nbsp;and access the RETN Network Platform. This solution helps save expenditure on the local loops, reduces service delivery time and provides flexibility to scale in the future. Please speak with your Account Representative for more information. The RETN IP/MPLS network is built over diverse, redundant fiber routes connecting over 970+ Points of Presence Worldwide.

Our unique network topology ensures optimal traffic flow via the shortest path available and the RETN network encompasses extensive low latency terrestrial paths connecting Europe to Asia. All RETN Ethernet &amp; VPN services are configured in the assured-forwarding class by default, allowing us to prioritise the traffic over all other&nbsp;types, depending on bandwidth. In case of a fiber cut or any other issue, traffic is automatically rerouted to the next best available path.

The RETN DDoS Protection suite is a robust collection of security services designed to protect your network and infrastructure from various types of DDoS attacks.

Deprioritisation of traffic&nbsp;– A system built in-house to protect the network on the edge and avoid congestions on the RETN backbone, where malicious traffic automatically receives a lower priority and gets discarded first in case of congestion.Remote Triggered Blackhole (RTBH)&nbsp;– allows IP Transit customers to announce hosts tagged with 9002:666 BGP community, either for IPv4 or IPv6. All traffic destined to the /32 or /128 host tagged, will be discarded in ingress of the RETN Network.

OUR DDOS PROTECTION SUITE CONSISTS OF COMPLIMENTARY SERVICES

Extended blackhole (eBH)&nbsp;– more selective protection than standard blackholing, leaving legitimate traffic unaffected. There are two BGP Communities available:&nbsp;9002:667: drop all UDP traffic,&nbsp;9002:668: drop UDP traffic from “known amplifiers” (UDP with source-port 19, 53, 123, 161, 389, 520, 1900, 11211 and fragmented UDP).Flowspec&nbsp;– the BGP flow specification (Flowspec), allows you to rapidly deploy and propagate filtering and policing functionality among a large number of BGP peer routers to mitigate the effects of a DDoS attack over your network. This means that you will be able to define, in a very specific way, which traffic should be discarded on the RETN network before heading towards your interface(s).

BGP SERVICES

<ul><li>Can drastically reduce volumetric attacks</li><li>Leverage RETN’s 99,6 Tbps of&nbsp;IP/MPLS&nbsp;network capacity to absorb the largest attacks</li><li>Very useful if integrated with your own DDoS Mitigation solution</li><li>Can be combined with any RETN DDoS Mitigation Service</li><li>Uncommon: just a handful of service providers offer these</li></ul>

BENEFITS OF EXTENDED BLACKHOLE AND FLOWSPEC

The highest level of DDoS Protection is Mitigation, the ability to divert the traffic during an attack to the closest scrubbing centre, returning only the non-attack traffic to the customer. New and Improved We have recently greatly enhanced our DDoS Mitigation Product:<ul><li>Increased scrubbing capacity by 5000%</li><li>Increased scrubber locations thereby decreasing average latency to closer scrubber by 54%</li><li>New unmetered model</li><li>New dedicated Security Operation Centre (SOC)</li><li>New RETN Security Portal</li><li>Implemented different detection methods, including a Smart Detection Mode built with AI assistance</li></ul> Mitigation service is offered by two types of packages:<ul><li>Core: aimed at clients unsure of their DDoS risk profile but want comprehensive protection at a very affordable rate.</li><li>Ultra: a package for any type of customer, complete peace of mind which benefits from all features as standard.</li></ul>

DDOS MITIGATION SERVICES

RETN has longstanding experience in providing Internet services. We believe that in the face of increasingly sophisticated cyber threats, DDoS mitigation is now essential and should be expected by all businesses and mission critical networks that require real-time protection.&nbsp;

To help defend our customers, we recently reviewed and enhanced our entire product suite and offer, in order to prepare the way to make DDoS Protection a commodity and help our clients to tackle the&nbsp;50,000+ daily attacksworldwide.&nbsp;
