# Colocation server networks

You can view the list of colocation server networks in the [control panel](https://my.selectel.ru/cloud-servers/colocation): in the top menu, click **Products** → **Colocation** → server page → **Network \*\*\*\* tab**.

Colocation servers can be connected to:

* a public network (Internet, external network),
* a private network (local area network).

Colocation servers are provided with one public IPv4 address from a shared subnet by default. The shared subnet also contains servers belonging to other clients. To obtain additional IP addresses, [order a dedicated subnet](/server-colocation/about/additional-services.mdx) and configure it. You can connect a free [basic firewall](/basic-firewall/about/about-basic-firewall.mdx) for the dedicated subnet.

Private networks do not have Internet access and are used for communication between servers within a data center. To set up a private network between servers located in the same pool, specify the same VLAN on the local port of each server. To set up a private network between servers in different pools and/or with other Selectel products, use [Selectel Global Router](/global-router/about-global-router.mdx).

If you have your own AS (autonomous system) with a dedicated block of IP addresses, it can be announced to the Internet via Selectel equipment. To do this, connect the [BGP Connectivity](/internet-access/connect-via-bgp.mdx) service.

You can connect to a third-party carrier as part of the [FOCL](https://selectel.ru/services/additional/rentvols) service.
