Très bonne analyse du discours d'un PDG qui prétendait qu'un tiers du trafic Internet mondial passe par ses tuyaux. Spoiler : c'est plus compliqué que ça.

Les chefs et les journalistes veulent toujours des stats simples genre « qui a la plus grosse ». Mais la réalité ne se laisse pas faire.

Ever wonder how much routes are there in downstream cone of each known transit free tier 1 network? How much of those routes are single homed Vs multi homed?

Hey #homelab users!

You probably already know me by my free @BoxyBSD project and I often got asked about IPv4 addresses. Currebtly, I tinker with a new but also honestly not free service. The idea is creating a static IP service for homelab users. I'm aware that there're already some around, so what could be some benefits here?

- Static single #IPv4 & #IPv6 /48 (so you can subnet your homelab to several /64 without breaking #slacc)
- Bigger subnets (IPv4: /29, /28, /27 | IPv6: /32)
- Full RIPE personalization (inc. abuse & Co)
- #OpenVPN, #Wireguard, #GRE Support
- Auto configure (e.g., you load the wireguard config on any client and the addresses Arena immediately bound to that interface)
- Split usage / multiple tunnels: Use different IPs from your subnets at different locations
- Integration into #BoxyBSD
- Location in Germany or Netherlands (selectable)
- Hosted on redundant #FreeBSD nodes

Pricing:
- The starter package probably around 10€/month (not more) + 15€ setup including 2T traffic
- Pricing for addiriinal/larger subnets not yet sure, probably higher setup fees to avoid hoppers and spamers to keep the addresses clean
- Optional traffic packages (when exceeding speed Limit of 10Mbit which should still be ok for most homelabs)

World this be interesting? Im aware that many ones already do this by VPS themselves, so this might just be a bit easier and optionally offering whole networks including RIPE personalizations.

#FOSDEM 2025 special!

Did you met @gyptazy at the conference? Double your resources or get a second VPS in the same or different location for enhancing the learning, evaluation and testing possibilities!

* Learn and create HA setups
* Test #BGP multi-site setups
* Test pf firewall setups
* Test #Wireguard setups
* Test #ZFS send/receive functions
* And many more things

How? Just message @gyptazy in Matrix by your already present and defined Matrix account.

What means or is #selfhosting for you?

I think most ones will identify this with simply running something on their own system, that is under their own control. But is this enough? For data sovereignty probably…

- Is that really enough?
- What about everything else? What about the infrastructure?
- Should you run your own ntp, dns etc?
- What about your provider? Simply getting an IP assigned from your provider or become yourself an ISP?

Where does it start and where does it end?
