New Feature - Anycast IPs
Hey LET,
We've just launched something we've been working on for a while: Anycast IPs. As far as we know, we're only the second provider around here to offer this (and we actually have stock) - and, we believe, the first to offer anycast IPv6.
What you get:
- Every 3 servers in supported regions come with 1x anycast IPv4 + a /64 of anycast IPv6, free of charge (one allocation per trio; additional anycast IPs are 5 EUR/mo).
- Prefer to announce your own space? Anycast BYOIP is supported as well.
- The minimum spend to get started is currently 80 EUR/yr in servers - dropping to 75 EUR/yr (3x Budget Pico plans) once our new Singapore line is deployed soon.
In practice, this lets you run your own anycasted authoritative DNS, a small CDN, or similar setups - without investing in an ASN or IP space of your own.
Full details here: https://clientarea.strike.bz/index.php?rp=/knowledgebase/28/Anycast-IPs.html
Want to see it in action? Anycast test IPs:

One more thing - we've finally added a Tor Hidden Service:
- Main site:

clientarea.strikeh2klybqeftv4b2twqdaz77fzxypn4onabmcipai2ngwu3rjjid.onion
We're looking forward to your feedback and comments - happy to answer any questions in the thread.

LOL
Some taking US -> UK instead of just going to New Jersey. RIP routing
hello I can't seem to find link to 7$/year deals in the post
Sounds like hurricane issue
Hurricane does not have communities, so there is not much I can do. Can't influence their routing.
Very cool @3K33, still regretting not getting the 250th US deal instantly and then being beaten by bots lol
Of course you can, either announce to HE via IXs in each of your locations, or don't announce to HE at all so they route via transit. Once they learn of a route via IXs / PNIs it will have higher local pref than transit routes in their network.
Apparently that's not the case here and RETN is a transit but causing issues here
@3K33 already done quite a big optimisation with a little help from me, there is not much left to further tweak without becoming IX member with as6939 available in each location, which is quite complicated with Gdansk.
Very nice and congrats! Watching!
Please introduce the new feature of DM’ing me a $3/yr deal
CIA Blacksite location mentioned!!!
Deal where? Wanted to get the 250 deal but it kept wanting to charge me VAT
We charge VAT to every one from EU, it will adjust if you are outside EU after registration.
Same
@3K33 daj znac jak potrzebujesz pomocy z routingiem
Cool! So, I should spend 75 EUR/y to get anycasted IP on my server?
Yeah, that's how much cheapest 3 servers in each of our POPs costs.
But you're sold out in the US
Hm, a bit different from buyvm anycast, but still - an option. Congratulations with the unique feature!
DM Me, for smaller plans I can make room. Restock will come in August.
It’s exactly the same as BuyVM, you need any server in each POP
