What's the timeframe to get a block of IP's,
I'd like to start testing
and messing around with AMPRnet. I've got BGP routing available, and I
can't wait to get connected.
I am my Wireless ISP, so that won't be an issue. I
have a few different
routes, so I'm hoping for a /23, and put one on each end of my network.
Well, it should be mentioned that going directly for BGP routing and mentioning
that you are an ISP is probably not going to speed things up!
It would be advisable to start experiments with IPIP tunnels or other connectivity
and add BGP routing later, as a service to local hams only.
There are lots of requests for large blocks to be BGP routed for AMPRnet that really
are attempts from ISPs to get IPv4 space that they can no longer obtain from the
normal registries, so this kind of requests and formulation will make the
coordinator very wary...
