h1. The ungleich routing infrastructure

{{toc}}

h2. Status

This article is *IN PROGRESS*.

h2. Peer with us!

If you have a VM / IPv6 network from us and want to peer with us, the following steps should help you:

* Send a request to support -at- ungleich.ch containing your

** ASN

** Networks

h3. ungleich routers

To BGP peer with us, you will need to establish 2 BGP sessions (for redundancy reasons). The routers depend on the IPv6 that your endpoint has:

|_. Your VM is in ... |_. ... then peer with |

| 2a0a:e5c0:0:2::/64 | 2a0a:e5c0:0:2::3 2a0a:e5c0:0:2::4 |

| 2a0a:e5c0:0:5::/64 | 2a0a:e5c0:0:5::3 2a0a:e5c0:0:5::4 |

| 2a0a:e5c0:2:2::/64 | 2a0a:e5c0:2:2::5 2a0a:e5c0:2:2::6 |

You will receive the full IPv6 routing table from us.

h3. Configuration for you (the peer)

If you are using bird for peering, your configuration can look similar to this:

<pre>

# Adjust filters to your own preference

filter from_ungleich {

  accept;

}

filter to_ungleich {

  accept;

}

protocol bgp ungleichrouter1 {

	local as YOURASN;

	neighbor SELECT_FROM_TABLE_ABOVE1 as 209898;

	import filter from_ungleich;

	export filter to_ungleich;

}

protocol bgp ungleichrouter2 {

	local as YOURASN;

	neighbor SELECT_FROM_TABLE_ABOVE2 as 209898;

	import filter from_ungleich;

	export filter to_ungleich;

}

</pre>

h3. Configuration for ungleich

These instructions are for ungleich staff.

* Create / edit in the cdist type __ungleich_bgp_router:

** ${peer}_v6.conf (very similar to the peer example above)

** bird6.conf: define networks of peer (net_${peer})

** general.conf: add appropriate filters

* Apply bgp configuration or full cdist config

** cdist config -vvp6 -bj5 router{..}.place{..}.ungleich.ch # full

** echo __ungleich_bgp_router | cdist config -i - -vvp6 -bj5 router{..}.place{..}.ungleich.ch # routing only

* Verify that config has been applied

** bird6c

** conf

** show route protocol $peer

h2. RIPE

Our networks are registered with ripe.

h3. Maintainer

All objects should have the *mnt-by* flag of *mnt-ungleich*. This maintainer handle is usable by all our LIR accounts.

h3. CLI

A cli for accessing RIPE's rest interface is developed on https://code.ungleich.ch/ungleich-public/ungleich-cli
