What is needed to use anycast IPs?
- by coredump
So, there're a bunch of questions on SF about the uses and how anycast IPs are cool. My approach is something more practical. What specifically I need to have to use one of those addresses?
Do I need to be an AS (Autonomous System)?
If I want to use an Anycast IP on my internal network, is it possible?
Do I need anything special with a registrar/operator(s) to use it?
Basically, if I want to use an Anycast IP address, what exactly I need, from the equipment to configuration part.
