Advertise BYOIP
You can advertise your own publicly routable IP addresses (BYOIPs) to a peering ASN, making BYOIPs reachable and accessible within the network infrastructure.
Prerequisites
To successfully advertising your BYOIPs, you need to have:
A valid advertising prefix - Your AS is authorized to originate routes, which can be queried in mainstream IRR databases, such as: https://radb.net. - Your routes are RPKI authenticated;
A BGP session for advertising BYOIPs Ensure the IP version of the BGP session matches the version of the IP prefix to be advertised.
Procedures
On the upper left corner of zenConsole, go to Products > Global BGP > BYOIP > Advertise BYOIP.
Select the BGP session that you want to advertise BYOIP.
Enter the IP prefix.
More settings - Select a resource group for your BYOIP - Add a note for your BYOIP
Click Advertise Now.
Note
Ensure the IP version of BGP session and the IP prefix to be advertised are the same.
The network mask should be no larger than 64.
Only the authorized AS can advertise the IP prefix. Confirm your IP ownership and validate:
