https://bgp.tools/as/201379#connectivity 6 Upstreams, 105 direct peers 🙂 My AS201379 / 2a06:9801:1c::/48 has some really solid European connectivity now. Entirely powered by FreeBSD and FRRouting, no proprietary routers and no legacy-IP (formerly known as IPv4). #bgp #networking #bgp #freebsd #frr #ipv6

Successful surgery on my BGP core for AS201379 done. Got a third edge-router online, reorganized local-preferences and optimizing packet flows for efficiency and cost. Monitoring with Grafana is perfectly fine. RIPE Atlas measurement looks amazing for central Europe 🙂 Great connectivity for my 2a06:9801:1c::/48 Looking Glass: https://lg.hofstede.it Peering information: https://hofstede.it/as201379.html #networking #bgp #ipv6 #freebsd #frr #ripe

I just published a new guide on evolving a single BGP router into a multi-homed, two-PoP network using FreeBSD, FRR, and PF.

• Native peering on Vultr + 3 GRE transits
• Tying it together with iBGP
• Why stateful firewalls break asymmetric transit (and how to fix it)

All for ~€18/mo.
