== Transit Information ==
 
This site provides a peering point between the Backbone and the more general Internet.
 
 
=== Software ===
 
The Backbone network is peered using [[wikipedia:Border_Gateway_Protocol|BGP]] running on [https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=18350234 Mikrotik CHR]. We accept a full table for both IPv4 and IPv6.
 
 
=== Transits ===
 
Peering operates over [[wikipedia:WireGuard|Wireguard]] tunnels to two transit points:
 
 
* [https://freerangecloud.com/ FreeRangeCloud] (Fremont) - primary
 
* [https://route64.org/ Route64.org] (Kansas City) - backup
 
 
=== Hardware ===
 
The Mikrotik routing software runs on a redundant Ryzen cluster running [[wikipedia:Proxmox_Virtual_Environment|Proxmox]] and [[wikipedia:Ceph_(software)|Ceph]].
 
 
=== Connections ===
 
The site primary connection to its peers is over 2Gb/s fiber. Backup connectivity is provided by [[wikipedia:Starlink|Starlink]].
 
 
=== Power ===
 
The site has limited battery backup plus a backup generator to handle longer outages.
