About Addix

ADDIX presents itself as the first public internet exchange point in Ethiopia and is hosted at the Wingu Africa data centre in Addis Ababa, a carrier-neutral facility, in a market long dominated by a single state operator. It runs as a sandboxed exchange under the supervision and guidance of the Ethiopian Communications Authority, so under an explicit regulatory pilot rather than a settled licence. Three networks connect for 21G: the operator's own network and the licensed provider WebSprix at 10G each, and the Bank of Abyssinia at 1G on a selective policy. The peering LAN is 196.60.116.0/24 and the fabric is IPv4 only, with no IPv6 prefix registered.
