Hi Dan,
Just to correct a misconception:
Thanks for the correction, Chris, and apologies for spreading misinformation.
I was under the understanding, however, that the intent is to turn

7. I know that plans are underway to deprecate the tunnel
infrastructure and replace it with a set of VPNs that are
independently peered with the Internet at large (at least, as I
understand it). I think it would be helpful to publicly commit to a
transition plan for this, including a public test period, a defined
set of go/no-go criteria, and a plan for a rollback if it doesn't go
well. In general, commit to involving the community early for any
large-scale infrastructure projects ARDC takes on in the future.
Plans are not underway to deprecate the IPIP mesh tunnel infrastructure.
Yes, ARDC are developing POPs that utilise VPN technology, and if all goes well I am sure
that some users of the IPIP tunnels will likely migrate to the POPs, also newcomers to
44Net will find the POPs a much easier on-ramp than the IPIP system, so IPIP use may well
reduce over time. To re-iterate ARDC have no plans to deprecate the IPIP infrastructure,
ARDC will continue to support its use for as long as the membership is using it. would tunnel operators point at one of the
other POPs for e.g. a default route, then? Thanks.
