Hi everybody,
It seems to me that you are making BGP-peering more difficult than
necessary.
* You do not have to announce your /24 (or larger) to more than one
peer/transit provider
* you do not have to have a public ASN. your transit provider can give
you a private ASN
* cheap and robust enough gear/software that covers BGP is widely
available, both as consumer products requiring less experience and open
source software requiring more experience
* The NOC requirements of your transit provider often depends
symmetrically on what level of service you require from your transit
provider.
But of course you need to be competent and experienced enough, or
partner with someone who is.
Cheers

BGP on the public Internet requires that you:
* Have an ASN
* Have address space that is a /24 or larger that you can announce
* Typically, have two peers or more you can announce to.
* Have the gear/software that announce the space
* Have some previous experience so you are not just experimenting with
your deployment
* Meet your peer's requirements (eg 24 hour NOC, show up at a peering
location, etc.)
* Have the skill set to execute all of the above
This will be a large hurdle for most folks.

BGP is what is used at a high level for the
internet, it can be
ultra-reliable but of course only as reliable as the number of peers
and the admin who runs that ASN 😉 and in some cases, the politics of
the country you reside in.
I have no comment on the proposal, other than that if I need to
renumber any of my BGP prefixes, sooner is probably better than
later, and VPN makes more sense (I think that’s whats being
proposed?) than the current method (but BGP is best) IMHO. Amazon AWS
for example can do BGP through a VPN, those of us who can do BGP will
prefer it as its easiest for our network design, and if you "just
want to connect" IPSEC is supported by almost everything and would be
easy to configure and setup, specially with a portal to create
credentials and provide some config examples. Then just default route
through it. Or even OpenSSL... The renumbering is what it is.
I am also willing to provide some no charge VPS's up here in Canada
if that is of any use for VPN end points or whatever purpose. We are
actively seeking volunteer opportunities that "mesh" with our IT
offerings (data center, BGP, VPS etc) and happy to donate some
resources to a good cause. I also focus on keeping local traffic
local (IE internet exchange points) so if the opportunity is there to
help route local 44net traffic within Canada that’s great, and better
for a number of reasons.
Just my .02

Thanks Antonis,
Looks things could be then allright for us in case this proposal is
accepted.
Althoug BGP doesn't look reliable as on
https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/security/glossary/what-is-bgp/ I
try to not favore BGP usage for ampr users.

https://mailman.ampr.org/mailman/listinfo/44net Hello Pedro,
The 44.153/16 allocation will only be affected if you do not want to
join a network like HAMNET but instead you want to use this IP space
on the Internet using BGP.
Depending on your current use case and what you plan to do, we can
provide more information about any steps you may have to take, and if
you do, we’ll be happy to work with you to determine what these may be.
Thanks,
Antonis
