#edgeix — Public Fediverse posts

As I sent out a personalised invite to the #AusNOG crowd to join MAU, I thought you lot may be interested in how #MastodonAU (and #MastodonNZ) connects to the interwebs!

MAU and MNZ (and related things) are hosted mostly in a datacenter up here in #Gladstone (Central #Queensland, #Australia).

I have redundant paths to Brisbane - one 9G connection to #NextDC B1, and a 10G Wave to B2.

I peer with #EdgeIX in both B1 and B2, #IXAU in B1, and Aussie Broadband and Telstra up here.

All this networking and redundancy and stuff is why it is REALLY REALLY ANNOYING that something dumb like 'I forgot to enable #VRRP on the Mastodon edge router' causes everything to fall apart.

The backend is #VyOS and #Mikrotik routers/switches, with #Proxmox for the virtualization, #Ubuntu for the OS's and #ZFS for the storage.

I'm also an #IPv6 guy, so everything is IPv6 enabled. In fact, I love it so much, I own the website. https://ipv6.com.au/

Oh, the reason all this infrastructure exists is because of my real job - https://aussievoip.com.au/ - So if you want #VoIP, or #SIP phones, you know a guy.
