Peering with AS203314 (Tunnel) #

Establishing a peering connection with AS203314 can be done using various Layer 2/3 tunneling protocols such as WireGuard, GRE, GRETAP, and VxLAN. In this guide, we'll show you how to configure each of these tunneling protocols to connect to AS203314.

Via Layer 2/3 Tunnel #

You can use WireGuard, GRE, GRETAP, or VxLAN tunnels to connect to us.

WireGuard #

Create a configuration file for your WireGuard tunnel:

nano /etc/wireguard/<name>.conf

Add the following configuration, replacing the appropriate values:

[Interface]
Address = <yourside ip>
ListenPort = <yourside port>
PrivateKey = <your private key>
Table = off

[Peer]
PublicKey = <our public key>
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0, ::/0
Endpoint = <ourside ip>:<ourside port>
PersistentKeepalive = 25

Enable and start the WireGuard service:

systemctl enable --now wg-quick@<name>

GRE #

Configure a GRE tunnel using the following shell commands:

ip tunnel add {name} mode gre local {yourside ip} remote {ourside ip} ttl 255
ip addr add {your tunnel ip cidr} dev {name}
ip link set dev {name} up

Alternatively, you can configure the GRE tunnel using Netplan:

tunnels:
  <name>:
    addresses: ["<your tunnel ip cidr>"]
    local: <yourside ip>
    remote: <ourside ip>
    mode: gre
    ttl: 255

GRETAP #

Configure a GRETAP tunnel using the following shell commands:

link add {name} type gretap local {yourside ip} remote {ourside ip} ttl 255
ip addr add {your tunnel ip cidr} dev {name}
ip link set dev {name} up

Alternatively, you can configure the GRETAP tunnel using Netplan:

tunnels:
  <name>:
    addresses: ["<your tunnel ip cidr>"]
    local: <yourside ip>
    remote: <ourside ip>
    mode: gretap
    ttl: 255

VxLAN #

Configure a VxLAN tunnel using the following shell commands:

ip link add {name} type vxlan local {yourside ip} remote {ourside ip} dstport 4789 id {vid} ttl 255
ip addr add {your tunnel ip cidr} dev {name}
ip link set dev {name} up

Once you have successfully set up the tunnel using one of the above tunneling protocols, you can proceed with establishing a peering connection with AS203314. This process typically involves configuring your Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) settings to exchange routing information with AS203314. By following these steps and establishing a peering connection with AS203314, you can improve the network performance and reduce latency between your network and AS203314's network.
