HYEHOST operates AS47272 in Wolverhampton, combining our routing layer with resilient upstream MPLS transport, UK exchange reach and DDoS mitigation.

Inside AS47272

Our Wolverhampton routing layer

Transit, LINX and LONAP enter through a redundant 40G aggregation layer. Storage and hypervisors attach at the QX layer, selected services connect at the SX core, and the TX pair provides the 10G service edge.

HYEHOST control with resilient upstream reach

Our customer network and routing policy sit alongside a resilient upstream backbone, exchange access and mitigation layer to provide one protected service path.

Operated by HYEHOST

AS47272 customer network

  • BGP and routing policy for hosting, transit, tunnels and customer prefixes.
  • Arista and VyOS infrastructure with redundant core and routing paths.
  • Native IPv4 and IPv6 across customer-facing network services.
  • Panel automation for BGP sessions, rDNS, tunnels and service management.
Resilient upstream fabric

MPLS, peering and protection

  • 100Gbps MPLS backbone linking Wolverhampton with London, Manchester and other on-net sites.
  • Corero-based DDoS mitigation filters attacks upstream of HYEHOST services.
  • Tier 1 transit and peering with UK exchange reach including LINX and LONAP.
  • Diverse fibre and carrier access into the Wolverhampton facility.
DDoS protection

Corero-based mitigation at the upstream edge

Attack traffic is detected and mitigated within the upstream network before it can consume HYEHOST's local service capacity. This adds an always-available network defence layer for customer services in Wolverhampton.

Mitigation is designed for network-layer attacks and complements, rather than replaces, application security such as firewalls, rate limits, patched software and secure authentication.

Failover & redundancy

Designed to stay up when things fail

The goal is to avoid single points of failure and keep maintenance events non-disruptive. MLAG keeps the switching layer redundant, while the two VyOS routers provide redundant routing/BGP so that loss of any single device or uplink does not strand the network.

Transit failure

If Transit A fails, routes learned via Transit A withdraw and traffic exits via Transit B (and vice-versa).

Single core switch failure

If 7050SX-A or 7050SX-B fails, the remaining core continues forwarding. Links to the failed core drop and traffic reconverges across the remaining core.

Single VyOS failure

If VyOS-1 or VyOS-2 fails, the remaining router continues routing/BGP and the network remains reachable through its uplinks to both cores.

MLAG peer-link events

If the MLAG peer link is interrupted, the core pair is designed to prevent split-brain behaviour; some paths may be suspended to preserve correctness until connectivity is restored.

Network FAQ

Wolverhampton network questions

Where is the HYEHOST UK network located?

HYEHOST operates AS47272 from Wolverhampton in the UK Midlands. The location hosts our UK VPS, bare metal, colocation and network services.

How is the network protected from DDoS attacks?

Wolverhampton services use upstream Corero-based detection and mitigation. HYEHOST also maintains its own routing and service controls on AS47272.

How does the MPLS network improve resilience?

The 100Gbps MPLS transport connects Wolverhampton to diverse UK network locations and is designed to route around link or equipment failures.

Is IPv6 native on the HYEHOST network?

Yes. HYEHOST provides native IPv6 across its VPS and network products, alongside IPv4 where included or selected.
