Full BGP route feeds

jtk · December 2

I'm interested in providers or leads to providers who can supply IP4+IP6 full routes. Presumably this would be as part of an on-net leased system or set of systems if you have unique upstream/peer routes in different locations. However, if you'd support a multi-hop session to a remote off-net collector for some nominal fee that would work too.

The option to announce routes might be nice with the on-net option, but not necessary especially if getting a receive-only feed is more palatable for those that don't normally do this (and you can make it cheaper for me).

I'd prefer a modestly sized VM if on-net. 2GB of RAM, 20GB disk, 1 CPU should be about right for example. If you really insist on a dedicated server I'd possibly entertain that, but probably the cheapest you've got. I'm reluctant to pay recurring fees just to get routes if I'm also getting a system and not announcing routes, but if you insist I'm happy to know what your pricing model is.

TCP MD5 auth preferred if you can support it.

At least one session each for IP4 and IP6. I'd be surprised if anyone who supports this doesn't have IP6, but if that's you I might still be interested depending on who you are. Vice-versa if you're a IP6-only connected net, but I'd be shocked if you exist outside of hobbyist nets. :-)

Preferred budget is essentially the going rates for the VM specified above, but I'm open to something reasonable, especially if unique.

And I do know about bgp.services, bgp.cheap, route-views, RIPE RIS, and many other sources of routing data near-time, real-time and providers with BGP feeds, but feel free to reply with your favorite resources or providers if want to make sure I know about them.

I'll bring my own ASN with proof of control for it and any associated prefixes that can be originated by it (e.g., LoA, IRR policy, ROAs, email validation).

Are you starting a BGP.tools competitor?

No, that is a commercial product and a good one. My work is non-profit and research-oriented. Essentially that means I'm OK to trade-off revenue for not having to support users. :-)

ParadoxNetworks Limited sponsored AS200690 in Ontario Internet Exchange.
They have four locations in North America with IXP ports.

You can plead your case via ticket system and they might sponsor you.
Tell them AS200690 introduced you.

Happy to help. Feel free to reach out by ticket. And we'll see if i can do a bundle price over a couple of locations i have 'on net'.

@jtk

2GB ram will be a bare limit for 1 table full ipv4 and 1 table full ipv6

If you run soft reconfiguration inbound you will need twice as that.

I presume you will use Bird2/frr? maybe vyos??

if you wish to have multiple tables, 16G will be the amount of ram needed.

Or I misunderstood your needs?

You misunderstand, but that might be my fault. I do not need to install routes into the kernel. So while not ideal 1GB RAM can work, but 2GB of RAM is better and preferred in this case.
