Host or Sponsor an M-Lab Measurement Site
M-Lab supporting partners may contribute or donate resources to provide new measurement points around the world. M-Lab places servers in datacenters where last mile ISPs interconnect with transit to the Internet. At a minimum, sponsoring a measurement point requires a commitment to provide:
- 5U rackspace and power
- a /26 IPv4 block and /64 IPv6 block if available, both globally routed, and statically assigned to M-Lab equipment
- a 1G dedicated, burstable to 10G uplink to a single transit provider
- remote support in coordination with M-Lab for installation and periodic maintenance
- three year commitment to sponsor costs of the above items
If you represent an organization interested in becoming an M-Lab supporting partner, please contact us.
