Thank you for offering this!
I would like to use this to have my first outpost in Asia. About questions: With you being in / out of China are there any rules someone should know? Is HK a good relay into China? Sorry, if these are noob questions
Thank you for the questions!
Count me in — thanks Netfront for hosting this!
Question about AS4658: since you mention being incredibly open about a recent incident, is there a public post-mortem or status page where we can read about what happened and what changed? Curious how a long-running ASN like yours handles transparency.

If I win, my planned use is a low-traffic personal VPN/monitoring node in Asia — Hong Kong next to HKIX is a great spot for that.
Good luck everyone!

That's great, I think it would be best used for monitoring.
It looks really good.
I plan to use it for monitoring
I'd probably use it either as a VPN or as an uptime monitor for my other servers.
Good luck,
If i win perhaps i will setup some xray vpn or selfhosting some opensource app like opencloud
VPN, proxy
For monitoring of my websites, discord & telegram bots, are you guys counting both IN & OUT traffic bandwidth?
How old is AS4658, can you sneak me into guarantee pile?
Global security monitor.
I will use the VPS for my uptime checker and host wp site
We use the standard :666 community to blackhole DDOSed IP addresses in /32 to some of our transit providers who does entertain :666. And we constantly announce ipv4 .0 and .255 /32 to the blackholes, because we never used those addresses, and also to test if the :666 announcements work. But RPKI does not have /32 associations. Therefore you see those invalid ROA. Happy to meet some real nerds who know and look into stuffs!!
I would use it to run a few small projects for home automation or STR apps
Thank you! We are a very small team indeed, not that we call ourselves established business. We are here at LET because, this is actually the first time we "come out" and do some social media marketing, and because deep down we are also networking nerds, enjoying doing what we doing! We do not see LET community as really low-end, we see members asking very sensible and "know the stuff" questions.
Our standard vanilla terms of service is at https://hosting.netfront.net/termsandconditions/termsandconditions.htm
Thank you!
would be nice to have something in HK finally, most of my stuff sits in US/EU and asia latency is painful. probably a small reverse proxy + uptime monitor, maybe a wireguard endpoint for when i travel
q: is the IPv6 a routed /64 or just a single address?
Full incident report in https://hosting.netfront.net/announcements/30/Netfront-sharpCVE-2023-54391-Incident-Report-Proxmox-VE-authentication-bypass-22-hosts-in-a-cluster-compromised-and-how-we-restored.html
We announce our routes to China via our transit providers, each of them has peering arrangement with the three telcos of China. We also maintain some more direct transit to china, but they are expensive therefore mainly reserved for use by select data centre customers. We fine tune our outbound and inbound policy to achieve traffic balance among our transit providers.
Traffic into China mainly via our current transit providers.
Our VPS customers can buy unlimited VPN accounts and we are building a provisioning script to help our customers use the VPN service on their cloud instances to manage traffic.
Yes, for this particular giveaway, they do include dedicated fixed IPv4 and IPv6. Some of our other plans actually include multiple IP addresses. You may check out https://hosting.netfront.net/, we offer our service in the concept of "resources". That you may use a set of resources to build multiple VPS. There may be LET offers shortly!
The Broadwell CPU configuration is a common denominator to make the instances compatible to multiple CPU models, so that we can hot migrate the instances when we need to do maintenance.
And yes, we do provide unlimited VPN services to our VPS customers and we are building a provisioning script for customers to use multiple VPN on their instances to route traffic. Hopefully the script will be done soon.
Thank you!
1. All of our VPS offers are done with KVM
2. The VPN was tunneled through cloudflare to the final destination end points that we have total control. Client can create multiple of these VPN tunnels. We are building a provisioning script to let customers apply them to their Linux instances.
3. Forgot to stress in first post: 1TB is the sum of BOTH directions, for now.
Hong Kong's direct bandwidth into China probably is very expensive, compared to offers in other places that is further from China geographically.
Would love to test BGP
Thank you! The incident report is here: https://hosting.netfront.net/announcements/30/Netfront-sharpCVE-2023-54391-Incident-Report-Proxmox-VE-authentication-bypass-22-hosts-in-a-cluster-compromised-and-how-we-restored.html
Welcome! What do you want to achieve with the test ? We do provide IP transit service to our customers.
I need a 1 dollar vps for world domination with my nano llm startup.
I like that, thanks!
GLWS to everyone here
