What is Subscription-based IT Infrastructure?

Subscription-based IT Infrastructure is a subscription model where the provider supplies, installs, operates, and maintains all network hardware and software. Customers pay a predictable monthly fee instead of buying equipment outright — eliminating CAPEX and shifting to a pure OPEX model.

How quickly can 1IX deploy a network?

1IX can deploy a fully operational network in 2–3 weeks from contract signing. Our Zero-Touch Provisioning workflow eliminates the 6–18 month procurement cycles typical of traditional infrastructure purchases.

What network equipment does 1IX use?

1IX deploys exclusively Juniper Networks equipment — MX Series routers for ISP and carrier networks, QFX Series for datacenter fabrics, EX Series for campus and enterprise switching, and SRX Series for security and firewalling.

Does 1IX serve government agencies in the Philippines?

Yes. 1IX provides DICT-aligned managed network services for Filipino government agencies, LGUs, and SUCs. Our pure OPEX model fits annual government budget cycles and we are PhilGEPS-ready.

Multi-Tenant Routing (VRF)

Isolated routing tables for secure multi-customer environments

By 1IX Engineering TeamReviewed by 1IX NOC TeamPublished February 18, 2026Updated July 12, 2026

Network Isolation Challenges

Service providers and enterprises hosting multiple customers need strong network isolation to prevent cross-tenant traffic leaks and maintain security compliance.

VRF-based Network Segmentation

Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) creates completely isolated routing domains on shared infrastructure, providing carrier-grade multi-tenancy with zero cross-contamination risk.

How It Helps ISPs

Support unlimited customers on shared infrastructure
Complete traffic isolation between tenants
Flexible routing policies per customer
Simplified management vs physical separation

How It Helps End-Users

Guaranteed network isolation and security
Independent routing control
Compliance with data segregation requirements

Why MikroTik CCR Falls Short

Limited VRF support
Performance impact with multiple routing tables
Complex manual configuration
