Seller with GSL in Amsterdam or London or Frankfurt with BGP
Looking for a provider that has GSL in western Europe like Amsterdam, London, or Frankfurt that can offer a BGP session. CPU: probably any will do, ram: 1gb, disk: 10 gb. Port: 1 gbit. Must be able to announce to GSL only and use their 1 BGP community to block everything but liberty global.
I would have gotten a dedicated server with GSL myself but they only sell $350+ servers in europe now with no plans to restock the others.

Hello,
our servers are colocated in NL.
we can announce free subnets /24 or you can use our downstream for 12 euros per month
Hello thank you but I need GSL transit specifically and it seems like you don't have it.
our servers are colocated in NL.
Again you are offering something you do not have / no one asked on random threads
I must admit my guilt,
I copied the message to the wrong thread
@RoyaleHosting may be able to help you
they don't have gsl unfortunately
@MikeA resells GSL servers in NL, maybe he can help?
he doesn't offer bgp
You might be interested in some of @RoyaleHosting offerings. Just to clarify, RoyaleHosting no longer uses GSL, but their own in-house multi-terabit scale protection that in ours and many others' experiences outperforms way better than GSL.
(RH offers BGP bgp sessions for 25/month + 75 onetime for dedicated servers or colocation)
Good to know, I was not aware that they no longer use GSL.

I want to clarify that they do not solely depend on Corero for DDos Protection, but it is a layer behind their own in-house mitigation on all locations.
I forgot to mention that RoyaleHosting does not provide BGP for VPS.
Maybe Misaka in AMS? I know they have DataCamp and I think, from memory, they have GSL via Hyonix.
I can't use RoyaleHosting because they have no pops in APAC.
The sole purpose of me getting GSL in Europe is because they won't allow you to turn off liberty global. If I activate GSL in Asia, it sends people using Liberty Global in Europe to Asia unless I have GSL in Europe.
They don't have GSL in any European pops and Hyonix is only in NJ.
Anyway.
Oh ok it is for some reason listed as a peer rather than transit. I guess I'll see if it will work.
Your typing and my screenshot do not correlate. Anyway.
I'm using bgp.tools to check upstreams and since hyonix was deprefed in amsterdam, it did not show up.
I dont understand this bit.
Are you saying that, if you have servers with GSL in Asia, Liberty Global will carry it from EU->Asia instead of using GSL's backbone from EU?
LG -> GSL SG & AMS looks fine to me.
@bobert Hi, if I understood correctly, you want a server/VM with a BGP session that includes Liberty Global? In case you are interested, we can offer you a BGP session in NL with AS35133, that has full transit from Liberty Global. Using the BGP communities, you can only export to Liberty Global. The AS path would be the same as your other PoPs.
He wants GSL habibi
Technically, it looks like an upstream for him with Liberty Global and the ability to do traffic engineering with BGP communities.
I think he wants to use GSL's network/backbone without Liberty due to routing issues.
But I do not see any routing issues towards GSL's network from Liberty/aorta.
I'm using anycast with a non-GSL server in London. I want my EU users to reach me through London.
GSL peers with Liberty Global in 7 different places in the EU? So every packet from Liberty Global there gets handed off to GSL immediately, which then sends it to asia, instead of sending it to London. GSL does not allow you to turn off Liberty Global.
So I cannot use any other provider even if they have Liberty Global because they don't have pops in all the places where GSL is in Europe, and even if they did, I can't afford that many.
can you share mtr/traceroute? im not seeing this issue from aorta/liberty to GSL in london.
if i use my logic correctly, if GSL is carrying UK traffic via Asia, then it should affect all european peers.
not just aorta.
My server in London is Datapacket, not GSL. GSL hasn't had any server for sale in London for over a year and they don't plan to restock anything but the most expensive servers in NA/EU due to their profit margins outside of apac being low.
You won't see this problem without an anycast IP.
They send it to asia because I only have GSL in asia right now.
ok from what I understand now:
You have anycast in London (with datapacket) and Asia (with GSL)
Downstream customers from Liberty in Europe are routed through GSL because of local peerings in EU.
the result, routing is going from EU -> Asia. instead to london.
and what you want to do is, block/ignore liberty from receiving routes from GSL?
Yes, except I asked GSL for that and they said they won't allow it. So the only solution is to get GSL in Europe.
Actually never mind, probably can't use GSL. It appears to have really bad routing with Charter.
