Peer with Kusakabe Shi

This page provides the information to get started on peering with the KSKB-DN42 and KSKB-NEO network

I operates 2 networks KSKB-DN42(AS4242421817) and KSKB-NEO(AS4201271111)
They are fully isolated except peering with eBGP to help me experiment different things.
For example, they use different architecture and different routing policy.
I use two ASN for them for batter isolation, welcome to peer with both my network!

What is DN42?

DN42 is a big dynamic VPN, which employs Internet technologies (BGP, whois database, DNS, etc) for educational and amateur scientific research purposes. Participants connect to each other using network tunnels (GRE, OpenVPN, Tinc, IPsec, Wireguard) and exchange routes thanks to the BGP.

Network addresses are assigned in the 172.20.0.0/14 and 10.0.0.0/8 range and private AS numbers are used as well as IPv6 addresses from the ULA-Range (fd00::/8)

DN42 can be used to learn networking and to connect private networks, such as hackerspaces or community networks. But above all, experimenting with routing in DN42 is fun!

Symbol

Generally, the symbol means:

Symbol Means
O positive
Δ partially positive
X negative

In the IP section

Symbol Means
O This node have public IP.
You can peer with this node even if you are behind NAT.
Δ This node doesn't have public IP, it's behind NAT.
You have to provide your endpoint
X Not accessable

Dynamic IP

This is an example crontab which cam resolve the ip periodically to prevent lost connection after my IP dynamic changed.

* * * * * wg set dn42-kskb peer "{peer public key}" endpoint "{peer wg endpoint}"


  1. Dynamic IP on my side, please set a cronjob to prevent lost connection after my IP changed. 

  2. Only 9 external port available in my side, contact me if you don't have external port
