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

@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 welcome to BGP IPv6 world

[cd_run_code@mastodon.world]

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

[larvitz@burningboard.net]

@drixter great place to be!

@Larvitz@burningboard.net Ok works from my phone.. I'll test when I'm back home too

@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

[larvitz@burningboard.net]

@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.
