Why Punto de Intercambio de Tráfico de Internet Guatemala Supports MANRS

The GTIX plays now an important role in Guatemala’s network-wide infrastructure, providing not only traffic exchange between connected members but also services that improve the security and resiliency of Guatemala’s Internet. The Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security (MANRS) are of utmost importance and align deeply with our goals of network security. The GTIX welcomes the compliance of MANRS and hopes it helps to disseminate this global initiative around the world.
