More generally, learning about and experimenting with networking is something that we ought to encouraged. Generally, the spirit of autonomy in Amateur Radio (in the sense of not relying strongly on a single piece of infrastructure belonging to someone else) is well served by operating networks.
That's not an easy thing, HI :-) The first time I tried to talk about "autonomy" here (we are an island, so the idea of having a technically autonomous network was even more obvious), I received flames by personal mail and on the air. Some people seem to have interpreted it out of the technical scope :-) Thats was not really discouraging, that was just funny, HI :-D
We are still experimenting and developing new things on our free time. One of our future steps would be a fully redundant routing, with two data centers in the two main cities of the island, and a fully redundant BGP setup spread over the two data centers via two different providers. After all, the meaning of "AS" is "Autonomous System" :-) In such a setup, I think having our own ASN may help.
Again, thank you all for your help.
