Internet access with BGP support (IP transit)
DWDM Channels
Dedicated point-to-point data transmission channel provided using Kyivstar DWDM equipment. The connection is made from technical sites where DWDM equipment is installed and there is sufficient capacity. It provides data transmission both within the same city and between different cities.
Advantages:
- Data transmission of any upper layer protocol (e.g. Ethernet, IP)
- Data transmission at speeds from 10 to 100 Gbps
- Savings on Ethernet/MPLS channels and equipment
Ethernet Channels (E-Line Channels)
Provision of physical and logical point-to-point communication channels based on Ethernet protocol using Kyivstar IP/MPLS network. Two points are connected via Ethernet in accordance with RFC 4761 (Using BGP for Auto-Discovery and Signalling) and RFC 4762 (Using Distribution Protocol (LDP) Signalling). It provides data transmission both within the same city and between different cities.
Advantages:
- Data transmission at speeds up to 100 Gbps
- Data transmission of arbitrary protocols of OSI Layers 3-7 (IPv4/IPv6, MPLS, BGP, OSPF, EIGRP, DHCP, etc.)
- Security, isolation, and integrity of data transmitted between remote nodes of your client's network
- Guaranteed bandwidth and QoS (Quality of Service) support
Optical frequency lease (Alien Lambda)
Providing a certain optical band (wavelength, frequency) for lease on Kyivstar's DWDM network and ensuring the appropriate quality of optical signal transmission between two points of the network. It provides data transmission both within the same city and between different cities.
Advantages:
- Data transmission of any upper layer protocols (e.g. SDH, Ethernet, IP)
- Data transmission at speeds from 10 to 100 Gbps
- Savings on Ethernet/MPLS channels and equipment
VPLS (L2) Channels
VPLS allows you to combine geographically distributed networks into a single virtual corporate LAN based on the Ethernet protocol. It is provided on the basis of Kyivstar's MPLS network and with the help of radio components. Depending on the addresses, it is available in three types: local, long-distance, and international.
*You can connect one or two nodes into a corporate network.
Used for:
- Connecting your customer's geographically distributed networks
- Connecting high-speed channels to customer data centres
- Backup of existing communication channels, etc
*If you use your own communication channels outside Ukraine or leased channels of international partners
IP VPN (L3) Channels
IP VPN allows you to connect two or more geographically separated facilities into a single secure network for data exchange based on TCP/IP protocols. It is provided throughout Ukraine, if technically possible.
It operates on the Kyivstar IP/MPLS network and unites geographically distributed corporate networks into a single virtual local area network Ethernet. It can also be provided via radio components.
Dark fiber rent
Rent and maintenance of optical fibre in Kyivstar fibre optic cable. It allows you to install your own equipment without limiting the speed of the data transmission channel on our side.
The technological basis is an optical network consisting of fibre-optic cables and passive switching and distribution equipment. The connection is based on single-mode fibre of the ITU-T G.652 standard.
It is provided throughout Ukraine (if technically possible) on the basis of fibre-optic communication lines. It involves the organisation of a passive optical line between two nodes of the corporate network.
Internet access with BGP support (IP transit)
Organisation of backbone access to the global Internet through a provider's or operator's network.
The key components of IP Transit include:
- The Internet is a global network in which data is transmitted through various channels. It connects various entities around the world.
- Public networks — networks that are accessible to everyone. They host data and information.
- Autonomous systems (AS) — large blocks of networks under common control that have autonomous system numbers (ASNs). The ASN number is crucial for traffic routing decisions.
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) — a protocol that manages the routing of data between different autonomous systems. It determines the most efficient path for data packets to reach their destination.
Additional features
Protection against DDOS attacks
Additional blocks of IP addresses
Equipment placement at technical sites and Kyivstar data centres
