I am operating small network of AS214578, with few IPv6 spaces only.
|
|
|
|
I acquired AS and Addresses from RIPE, which is relatively easy to work with.
|
|
|
|
It costs about 100EUR/year for ASN and 80EUR/yr for /44 IPv6 Addresses.
|
|
|
|
I only breifly knew about how internet routing works, then I got curious about details few years ago.
|
|
|
|
I found few of my colleages got their own AS for them to play with, so I decided to do so.
|
|
|
|
Unlike other RIR (afaik), RIPE has unique heirachy called LIR. Its like smaller distributor for RIPE resources.\
|
|
We can contact LIR for them to sponsor my ASN and IP spaces.\
|
|
We also can directly acquire resources from RIPE, but it requires to be member of RIPE which costs few thousands per year.
|
|
|
|
One thing I learned, I can request PA (Prov. Aggr.) spaces seperately from who sponsors ASN.\
|
|
I can get ASN from Prov. A who provides it at cheap, and IPv6 from other prov. who provides at cheap.
