It doesn't improve internal connectivity in the AMPRNet at all. We still

What I envision would be to have a few regional AMPR BGP routers/peering
points. AMPR would need and ASN of course (I'd be willing to put up the money
for this from ARIN), some hardware and a few friendly providers across the
globe. I have one friendly provider, and I'm sure we could find a few more.
Hardware is up to us, I'd prefer an actual router (ALU/Cisco/JNPR), but there
is no reason openbgpd on a *nix box wouldn't work.
So you would have each peering point announcing 44/8 but behind the peering
routers would be a set of (GRE) tunnels between all the routers. The 44net
BGP routers would run I-BGP across these tunnels (or ISIS/OSPF, but I feel
IBGP would make more sense to manage redistribution of routes as it's got more
"policy knobs" than OSPF and to a lessor extent ISIS.) The 44net non bgp
users would then have IP-IP tunnels to their closest 44net peering router.
For optimized routing (as it makes no sense to me for .AU users to tunnel
through UCSD) we could have routing between the 44net routers announce more
specific routes for directly connected subnets. We'd have to manage this, as
I'm sure we don't want to add another 1000 routes to the global table (and
then have filtering), but I don't see it being that many routes when a /16 is
for a whole continent, which has 1 or 2 peering routers in this design. This
also avoids black holes caused by 44net directly connected peers being
filtered by sites that filter at less than a /24 block (don't laugh, I've seen
large companies filter at a /19)
Admittedly this is a very "back of a napkin" design, but it's a start.
Thoughts?

I really see both of these uses of 44 net as different projects in the
same band. Think 440mhz some people do ssb, others FM, while others
do SSTV some folks do packet some people do Fast Scan TV. There is
not really a need for a 100meg bursting to 1gig connection to
interface with a 1200 baud system. Your not going to be able to do
much with the content. SIP cant run over 1200baud, you would kill
your local lan if you tried to download a 100meg file from an FTP
server. I actually think you would want to prevent access to some of
what we are going to do.
Now as far as providing an additional de-centralized access to the
internet for the tunnels, yes we have said we are happy to help with
that in any way and it is really needed. Don't take this the wrong
way Brian, but if the big one(earth quake) hits SoCal the whole 44net
cant talk to each other anymore. As UCSD is very close to one of the
major fault lines in SoCal I would say this is not an if but a when
situation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Andreas_Fault

Yes, sometime in the next 10,000 years the San Andreas and its contributory
faults are expected to knock us off the map. Doubt I'll be around. The
rising sea level is likely to get here long before that.
But with the tunnels, "the whole 44net cant talk to each other anymore" is
simply not true - that's the advantage of a mesh: its survivability.
I'm for more peering points but there are difficulties. As far as I know,
everyone else who is doing multiple peering points has independent connectivity
between those points - a fibre network they own, dedicated ATM circuits, etc.
I don't see us having that ever.

In our case, we already have that with the tunnels, so I can totally see
this working.
As mentioned before, we would need a new AS number from ARIN. We would
also need to designate a small chunk of the 44 space for anycasting on the
internet. Every BGP gateway router would send announcements for 44/8 using
the new ASN. Each router will also listen on the same anycast IP for
tunnel traffic (such as 44.255.255.1). When IPIP packets are received on
that address, it will route them using the tunnel matrix. The subnet
routers (the ones not using BGP) would need a static route that sends the
anycast IP range out through their internet connection instead of through
the tunnel.
The advantage of this configuration would not only be redundancy, but
anycasting also allows the traffic to automatically route to it's closest
gateway. This is what many CDNs and DNS providers do.

New subject: directly connected and tunnel subnets
That is a no brainier to get the AS number. I will chip in for sure.
In fact I really think any group that is doing BGP should be requried
to flip the bill for part of the re-issue thru donations for direct
funding.
Brian are you still waiting on CA or the IRS to get you the 501c3
status. It would really help to raise funds. (maybe we should change
the application to be ampr teaparty to speed things up) just kidding,
but would probably work. (sorry for DX stations that is a US joke as
the IRS just got in a lot of hot water for dragging their feet on any
application that contained the words tea or party for a tax exempt
status) By being a 501c3 US citizens donations are pretax dollars and
in some cases like my wife's employer. (The little beverage company
based in Atlanta GA think red and white logo.) They match 2 for 1 aka
we write a check for $100 they mail a check for $200 to ampr.
Just a thought does ARIN not cut a break on the price if your a
non-profit? Do they charge UCSD for the AS number?

I was thinking long term. Interest on these projects comes and goes, so while it might be

We do need an AS number for this project to complete it as described, though.

My $DAYJOB company is a LIR with RIPE. An ASN registered with RIPE via
a LIR is 50 EUR (~66 USD) per year. I could help with requesting the

think it could be possible that a few national or regional HAM clubs

How would an AS number be funded? In direct answer to that I thought
I saw one of the previous commenter volunteer to put that up
themselves (at least the initial fee) but bthe broader question is
really how AMPRnet as a whole ought be funded on a continuing basis.
Has anyone worked out and determined what the annual operating costs
are estimated to be (peering, transit, colocation, ARIN fees, core
hardware upkeep & maintenance, etc. ). The reality is that it costs
something to keep infrastructure running. How is that paid for?
Maybe those who have address sapace assigned ought to chip in
something like $5-10 for the processing of the assignment & somewhere
between say $0.10-1.00/address assigned per year possibly with some
consideration given toward larger allocations that actually built out
useful projects that served to expand and further AMPRnet goals.

Well no it is not necessary as we are using the space alocated to ham
radio for ham radio use these will be APs and clients that are
operating on ham radio frequencies.
As for as use of the 44net I guess one could ask the same of you. If
your project is not routable to the internet why not use 10/8? Answer
on both counts because it is allocated for ham radio use. One
"project" is not necessarily exclusive of the other on the 44 net just
like SSB and FM are both used in 440mhz.

Ok, so wouldn't it be great if those clients could access services
within other amprnet sites in addition to the Internet (assuming that
some cool services would exist)? And that your local services could be
accessed from other radio-based networks, not just from the rest of
the Internet? For now, you'll need to have tunnel routing in addition
to the BGP announcement to be able to have that. Without tunnel
routing you only have access to the Internet and other BGP-enabled
sites.

same of you. If

Cut-n-pasting the answer from my previous email:
I always thought that the cool thing about using 44/8 with BGP
announcements would be that [services in the network would] be
accessible over both the normal Internet routing infrastructure *and*
over radio from various Amprnet gateway sites. And that whenever a
44/8 source address would be seen at my service, I could tell that it
would be originated by an amateur radio operator.
Interoperability with the Internet, thanks to the BGP announcements
and not using 10/8, *and* at the same time, access to the same
services from ham radio networks which are not allowed to access the
Internet over ham radio due to local regulations. That'd be cool. Run
a nice web service having a net-44 address, but when the visitor comes
from within the amprnet with a net-44 address, allow extra features
like being able to key a transmitter.
