Title: New tunnel to Amsterdam ?
Post by: ricrjhl on January 15, 2011, 02:48:33 PM
Hello,

When i want to create a tunnel the system says i should use the server in Amsterdam (closest to me). However in the options i have for selecting a server Amsterdam is not available.

Is this normal, Amsterdam maybe not taking any more tunnels ? Have now chosen London to get my tunnel from.

Greetz,
Richard.

I looked over the load and traffic levels for the tserv in AMS, and have upped the number of tunnels on it. You should be able to create one there now.

Deleted my Londen tunnel and am now running over Amsterdam.
Thanx for both making it possible and the quick response.

Greetz,

Richard.

I hope we won't run out of /48s on tserv11.ams.

I'm getting the same issue, but the other way round.  I'm being recommended London, but there's no option to select London.  Should I just use one of the others?

Thanks, Ian.

Looks Frankfurt also hit its limits.

Maybe HE has to consider additional tunnelbroker capacity now IPv4 IANA space has run out. IPv6 is getting more and more popular every day, and I think we need to support those who don't have a native connection yet.

Would it be possible to bump up the number of tunnels in Frankfurt as well. I have the same issue with Frankfurt Richard and Ian had with their recommended POPs.

Thanks a lot!

While it might be recommended, if not available, please use one that is.

Amsterdam is again full. As a temporary fix for the tunnel exhaustion I started using my two /48s I got on AMS to provide IPv6 connectivity to friends and family (I'm some kind of Tunnelbroker too  :P ).

Frankly speaking, IPv6 tunnel and /48 exhaustion is exactly not what we need right now since the global IP4 pool ran out.

There seems to be a potential misunderstanding. There is no exhaustion of tunnels or /48s with our broker. The tunnel-servers have a soft-limit on the number of tunnels that we can increase after reviewing traffic stats and load on the nodes. Regarding /48s, as of me typing this right now we've allocated maybe 1/5th of our /32 to tunnels. The issue is with how we hardcoded the size of /48 pools to the nodes. This is getting worked on to be resolved so more /48s can be made available to each node. As it is, we'll probably open up another 1000 slots for tunnels, on the tunnel-servers currently not selectable, after some more review. However that won't make more /48s available if that pool is fully utilized on that particular node.

Edit - And bumped up FMT2, FRA1, AMS1.
