				"content_html": "<p>Snuggle Systems now has its own slice of the internet&rsquo;s routing table: AS208147 is officially registered, and I&rsquo;m starting the process of actually putting it to work.</p>\n<h2 id=\"whats-actually-happening-here\">What&rsquo;s actually happening here</h2>\n<p>An ASN doesn&rsquo;t do much, it only becomes useful once you start using it to announce via BGP towards upstreams willing to carry the announcements. So the plan, roughly:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Two independent sites</strong>: each with its own path to the internet, so a failure in one location doesn&rsquo;t take the network down.</li>\n<li><strong>Two transit providers</strong>: at least at the beginning, one per site with the two sites talking to each other directly.</li>\n<li><strong>Two IP address prefixes</strong>: one /24 for IPv4 and one /48 for IPv6</li>\n</ul>\n<h2 id=\"what-has-been-done\">What has been done</h2>\n<p>The boring stuff: paperwork, applying for an ASN, getting PI (provider-independent) IP address space, talking to transit providers, getting RIPE database objects in order, setting up RPKI ROAs, setting up IRR objects, making a PeeringDB entry so that AS208147 is discoverable and contactable by anyone who needs to reach it, and finally, making this page.</p>\n<h2 id=\"whats-next\">What&rsquo;s next</h2>\n<p>Next up: the actual BGP sessions - getting the two sites talking to their respective transit providers, then to each other. I&rsquo;ll hopefully do a follow-up once it is working.</p>\n<p>If you&rsquo;re building something similar and want to compare notes, feel free to reach out to shiny new AS208147!</p>\n",
