It's my understanding that very few (and by very few I don't know or have ever heard of any) who will SWIP (change the abuse contact) an IP for anything under a /28 allocation. If one would SWIP a single IP, it'd probably require a very expensive bandwidth package. I've thought quite a bit about pooling resources and getting a /28 from a provider, and then assigning those IPs as secondary IPs on cheap VPS providers, and then routing the traffic via encrypted IPSEC/GRE tunnels. But the /28 would have to be advertised in a single location, because people won't do BGP routes for single IPs (or maybe even /28s). So if the /28 was registered in a datacenter in Chicago, all exit traffic would go to that datacenter (bad) then be shipped to the real Tor node in say Europe (slow), and then do the 3-hop Tor path. So I eventually gave up on that idea. But my networking kung-fu is not as strong as others, so maybe via multicast or anycasts tricks this could work? -tom _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
