New post: Joining DN42. The parallel hobbyist BGP network on WireGuard.
The setup: ASN registered via a git PR, MikroTik CHR on bhyve as border, three WireGuard peerings, FreeBSD jail running PowerDNS + nginx.
The fun part: blog.chofstede.dn42 serves the same content as blog.hofstede.it, but with a TLS cert signed by DN42's own CA and zero packets on the public internet. Two front doors to the same building.

Building a DN42 node from scratch - registering AS4242422539 and fdce:73f7:a2dc::/48 in the registry, configuring a MikroTik border router with three WireGuard peerings and BGP filters, running a F...
Well, now that is looking healthy 🙂
DN42 with working DNS resolution, Dual-Stack with IPv4 and IPv6, proper speed of almost 200mbps / 40mbps and 4 peers that exchange routes cleanly with my router (two MultiProtocol, one seperated into IPv4 and IPv6)

v4: 172.21.66.194
v6: fdce:73f7:a2dc::194
