STACKIT Network provides enterprise cross-project virtual networking and hybrid cloud connectivity options.

## Service Overview
- **Cross-Project VPC Sharing**: Shares VPC networks securely across organizational project boundaries.
- **Zero Bandwidth Costs**: Free egress traffic within the same region and out to the public internet.
- **High-Speed Direct Connect**: Dedicated physical fiber connections supporting up to 100 Gbit/s bandwidth.

## Technical Details
- **Routing**: Supports BGP dynamic routing and manual static routing tables.
- **Hybrid Options**: Direct Connect (IEEE 802.1Q VLANs) and Partner Connect links (up to 10 Gbit/s).

## Limitations & Constraints
- **No Native IPv6**: Public and private routing operates exclusively over IPv4 networks.
- **Layer 3 Boundaries**: Cross-project connection operates strictly via Layer 3 routing over STACKIT Network Areas (SNA).
