    New blog post: Running your own Autonomous System on FreeBSD.

    Got an AS number and IPv6 /48 via RIPE, set up a FreeBSD BGP router with FRR, two upstreams, and built GRE/GIF tunnels ti bring my own globally routable addresses to servers at different providers.

    The interesting part: dual-FIB policy routing lets FreeBSD jails speak from both provider and BGP addresses simultaneously.

      @Larvitz Dual-FIB is such an elegant way to handle this. Bringing your own IP space is truly the endgame of self-hosting. Nice work👍 👌

        @cd_run_code It all was a slow escallation from the silly idea "What if I could be my own provider" to that result, I have now .. 🙂 But was an amazing learning opportinity!

            @Larvitz Haha, exactly! Next step: laying your own fiber cables across the ocean to complete the ISP experience 😅

                The BGP article is also available on the Geminispace for those who prefer the lightweight web:

                gemini://gemini.hofstede.it/bgp_routing_asn_freebsd.gmi

                No tracking, no JavaScript, just text. Accessible via clients like Lagrange or Amfora.

                          @Larvitz@burningboard.net Interesting read, especially the part about '2 address space on a single server'.. I had hit a huddle on this before and could figure out why.. now I know what's wrong thanks to your blog post 🙂

                            @madamada Two address spaces on the same protocol always gets finicky. But on FreeBSD with two sperate fib's (basically routing tables) and reply-to in the PF rules, it's possible to do.
