I can announce for you as well, on a good blend of transit via as 55016 out of Alberta
Canada. Can also provide VPS.

Hi Chris,

IIRC Vultr will allow you to announce to them from your own ASN if you
have one
Thank you for your answer. I was not aware about that. Then, we need to :
- Obtain an ASN from a LIR
- Migrate our Vultr announcement to that private ASN
- Arrange redundant announcement of that ASN from another provider
so how you would then route the prefix to another
provider for
announcement could get interesting.
It’s possible with tunnels I guess, but the traditional way would be
to have your own BGP edge router in a datacenter and hook up feeds
from two transit providers. Doing it this way also gives you the
option of peering with multiple other networks, if you’re in a carrier
neutral datacenter.
All our servers are hosted in a local data center (on our island of
Corsica), but it has very limited transit capabilities, and no ISP
providing BGP directly (ie, at affordable cost for a radio-club).
Currently, we announce via a Vultr VPS in Paris, and we tunnel to
Corsica. The second announcement is not defined yet. I still have to
investigate all the available options, and choose two of them. Moreover,
we plan to deploy a second 44Net data-center on the island. Then, we
would have two DCs, connected to each other via iBGP, and each one
having its own eBGP announcement. More to follow...
