Abidjan, Peering, and the Price of Keeping Traffic at Home
The core question is not whether Côte d’Ivoire has an Internet exchange point in any formal sense. It does. CIVIX is a functioning national IXP in Abidjan, established in 2013, managed by the telecom regulator ARTCI, visible in major routing and peering directories, and carrying non-trivial live traffic. Public BGP data shows a real exchange LAN with visible members including Orange Côte d’Ivoire, MTN Côte d’Ivoire, Moov/Atlantique Telecom, GVA, MainOne, Akamai, Packet Clearing House, and several smaller local or regional networks. CIVIX’s own public MRTG page shows current aggregate traffic in the double-digit gigabits per second range, not a dormant zero-traffic shell. That matters, because it means CIVIX is not merely a ministry PowerPoint or an obsolete membership list.
