6 Upstreams, 105 direct peers π
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).
New post: Part 4 of running my own AS.
A direct BGP session with Hetzner on FogIXP, a fourth FreeBSD edge in ZΓΌrich, and a MikroTik at home speaking iBGP into the /48 - so my home LAN now has provider-independent IPv6 and exits AS201379 like any other site.
Plus a two-condition route-map that steers DTAG-bound traffic over Vultr.

Part 4 of the AS201379 journey: adding a fourth FreeBSD edge router at iFog with FogIXP peering, establishing direct BGP sessions with Hetzner, bringing the home network into the AS via an iBGP-spe...
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 π
Great connectivity for my 2a06:9801:1c::/48

Built some Grafana dashboard for my AS201379 BGP core-router (my two edge-routers will follow) π
Using node_exporter for FreeBSD and frr_exporter to get insights from the routing fabric.
Nice!

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 ~β¬18/mo.
