Service Offering

As part of the "Cloud Network Services" portfolio, Swissom will offer a range of network services such as Managed Reverse Proxy, Forward Proxy, Global Load Balancer, DNS, DHCP, IPAM, etc.).

Managed Forward Proxy

The Managed Forward Proxy is a customer-specific instantiation, which is operated by Swisscom. The provision, modification and decommissioning is automated end-to-end. Each Managed Forward Proxy is set up on a Swisscom public IP address. This means that the automated provision of BGP routing is always possible.

Internet Access & DDoS Protection (option)

Swisscom's Internet access is used for this service without the need of a customer own Internet access. Both IPv4/IPV6 or dual stack are available. The bandwidth of the Internet access can be seen in the Performance Classes chapter below. Internet access is only overbooked 1:3.
