Looking for Vultr alternatives for: BGP full table, LoA w/o RPKI for ~$5, Europe preferred
This seems really hard these days. I have a legacy IP address space that does NOT have IRR entries or RPKI. I do have LoA and RADb / AltDb entries though.
I am announcing my space via Vultr (VPS with wireguard tunnel endpoint).
This works well and Vultr accepted this a few years ago without any issues.
I would like to add some redundancy and add an additional peer/transit via a different AS for about the same cost as Vultr (~$5/mo).
I have tried iFog, HostHatch, Virtua.Cloud, BuyVM.net ... some don't do LoA's at all the ones I found who would accept LoA's still require RPKI.
Not sure if this has become harder of if Vultr is a noble exception.
Is there any other option out there besides Vultr?
PS: Location preferred in Europe, like Frankfurt or Vienna

Just curious, does the RIR not allow IRR entries to be added for legacy space?
Or was it because this legacy space is own by another provider that is unable to add the required objects?
Arin doesnt let you control your space from their panel / RPKI IRRD unless you sign an annual payment subscription I think ?
Ah got it that make sense.
I believe BuyVM does not require RPKI but as they add the subnets automatically via IRR/RPKI entries, you need to open a ticket for them to add your subnet manually.
I do use v3ng (v6node) as my backup-provider for BGP announces.
including an IPv4 they are lik 6€/month -> 6 USD. for 2 cores, 4GB RAM, 40GB NVME
for BGP I had to open a ticket. They are really helpful with all the setup, checks and whitelisting
Tough, a bit above your budget, but Frankfurt
@alexnjh: What @aphex said is correct: As a "legacy space" (i.e., address space before RIR system etc established) it is not tied to a specific RIR (even though in terms of address space it's currently part of ARIN). Using IRR (and hence RPKI) requires expensive fees and has other intricacies with which the owner of the block (a non-profit from which I am leasing my prefix) cannot deal with. So I am stuck without IRR/RPKI.
Really? They don't have availability now but I think availability opens up here and there, right? Opening tickets and waiting wouldn't be an issue for me. Let me check with them too.

Thanks! Are you sure they don't require RPKI and IRR though and can setup it up via LoA?
Also, would you be able to point me to the specific product? I can only find IPv6 options.
~EUR 6/mo would still be within budget
ask him beforehand. I’m not 100% sure. Sorry about that. Unfortunately, the @ went missing.
So @v3ng

After the registration you can deploy a VM. Though, BGP etc has to be done via ticket.
