As the 1023 16-bit ASN numbers are in use mostly in DL and surrounding countries, we were looking for another larger ASN space. The logical alternative is the 32-bit ASN space. The ASNs 42XXXXXXXX are reserved for private use by IANA (except the last ASN!). In order to avoid potential collisions we intend to use the ASNs 42270XXXXX in LX. 270 is the MNC (E.212) for LX (with some inspiration from DMR).

With this scheme, I guess we pick anything that starts with 310?

If this becomes popular, we will need more coordination. Have you considered deriving ASN from AMPR IPv4 allocations?

We will soon publish the exact ranges in use and I will publish the URL here asap.

If anybody of you is already using ASNs from the ranges mentioned above, please let me know. Nothing is written in stone, so we can still rearrange our setup HI :-).

We are only using the public ASN 54688 so far.

If someone of you is interested to setup a BGP session on the existing IPIP tunnel or on a dedicated IPIP, GRE, ... tunnel, please also get in touch with me.

I think Bart AE7SJ wanted to experiment with BGP routing in conjunction with some state-aware tunnel. I think he's away from email for the weekend, so you may not see him comment for a few days.

We can support any of the suggested tunnel protocols, and also accept non-encapsulated packets, if your upstream provider lets to send from 44/8 source addresses.

Good afternoon from LX,

I have published the list to the public at this interim location:

http://laru.lu/on-the-air/44net-hamnet.html

Should the URL change in the future, I will make sure the former URL provides a redirect.

• several D-Star HotSpots
• DNS resolvers open to 44net (Anycasted), secondary DNS Service

available for fellow YLs and OMs

• NTP servers (Anycasted)
• VoIP (SIP) and Jabber (XMPP) server
• VPN
• (planned) APRS Server
• (planned) connect existing APRS I-GATEs
