Thanks for your reply. I haven't applied for route permissions yet. I
wanted to know what subnet to advertise. I have a Denver subnet that I
will start to deploy here in Denver Metro at some point in the near future.
I plan on doing VPN gateways, servers and RF access points. That is
waiting on some other tasks I need to finish here, although I should have
full BGP routes up by the end of the year.
My NJ facility is ready to go live on VPN Gateways and Server, the upstream
IP provider has a work order ready to add the Full BGP route to theirs and
my route table once the permission is granted. At that point I can spin up
a bunch of VMs and VPN gateways.
My main question is: Should I apply for a new subnet in the NJ /16 or does
it really matter since that NJ facility will be basically serving the
entire world? NJ will not be serving any RF connections, although it may
do VPN tunnels...
The other side of that is that can I temporarily route my denver /24 to my
NJ DataCenter so I can start getting things built and tested? when Denver
DC comes online it will be a part of my full routes.
I am just trying to set this up correctly from the beginning. the geography
of this in my situation makes things more difficult.
