Launching the AS205941 network portal

2026-07-17 3 min readby Ștefan-Gabriel Lungu

AS205941 is a personal, IPv6-first autonomous system registered on RIPE space and operated by Ștefan-Gabriel Lungu (LSG). This portal is its public front door.

What the network is

A small, real network that runs BGP across several European internet exchanges and a couple of upstreams, dual-stack everywhere, with core routers in Amsterdam, Velbert, and London. It exists to learn, to peer, and to host a handful of side projects — DNS, mail, and monitoring — on space we control.

Where we peer

Route-server peering is up at Frys-IX, InterIX, AMS-IX, NINE, PiterIX, BGPEX and KawaiiIX. Peering is selective, and GRE / WireGuard tunnels are available for hobbyist networks that aren't on the same fabric. See Peering for the policy and Communities for traffic-engineering tags.

What this portal shows

Everything here is driven by live data from the routers:

  • A Dashboard of sessions, traffic, and health.
  • A real Looking Glass — ping, traceroute, and BGP queries run from the PoPs themselves.
  • The Prefix and Route explorers, straight from BIRD.
  • A Status page for the network's components.

If you'd like to peer, the details are on the About and Peering pages.
