Cloudflare Network Interconnect Setup

Setup requires a few steps: onboarding, configuring the cross-connection, configuring the Cloudflare Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), and go live. The entire process from onboarding to go live typically takes 10-15 days.

​​ Onboarding

During onboarding, Cloudflare works closely with your organization to accomplish the onboarding tasks.

• Scope your configuration (Kickoff call)
• Configure the network cross-connect (Duration: 1-2 weeks)
• Configure Cloudflare Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and Generic Route Encapsulation (GRE) (Duration: ~1 week)
• Go live (Duration: 1-2 days)
