hi um we are here to talk about uh that
in our hacker space in Copenhagen we
have uh a fiber connection and uh have a
bdp setup and have uh a r that look like
like this next to our fridge with all
our M um and if we go a little bit
closer you can see that we have a lot of
small signal board
computers uh and that's because that we
have uh yeah we have a lot of small and
bettered devices but the to go a little
bit back we have since 2017 had um uh
fiber connection and had had a bdp setup
with a public ASN and um we got a
sl24 uh sponsored by a friendly
organization so it's quite nice and then
we started doing members machines a
little bit later um so that members can
uh have some more experience playing
with network and bdp and routing and uh
trying to have a machine on the internet
uh I know VPS is also available and
stuff like that but it's a bit more fun
to have physical
Hardware um so yeah low power
devices and just best effort service no
service level
agreement uh we have uh dual stack so we
both have IPv6 and ip4 and we have the
ability to R your own IP addresses as
well as well so we have several members
that have their own uh mostly ip6 space
and their own asns um and we are
currently around 15 machines on this
setup um but we expect it to be growing
a bit soon but yeah um it's still small
scale but it's a fun small hacker Space
Project um so in order for for us to
cover some of the cost associated with
like powerwise we have small monthly fee
on it uh but the main thing is just we
want people to also be full member of
labat and have access to the hacker
space and so on so that they can service
machines themselves and so on um but
yeah um then ol wants to talk a bit
about the managing of all these machines
physically yes yes uh just um a word of
clarification this is not only for bgp
um playing it is also just for micro
hosting of any kind so uh it um made it
sound like it need quite a bit of
experience that's not the case you can
just start with a pie and uh host your
own services or a website or whatever
that
is so I want to talk a bit about the uh
the takeaways from 5 years of labic
Colo the first one is the big one single
about computers are not made to live in
large communities
they are not made for scalability they
have cables sticking out in all four
directions sometimes a fifth if there's
a header on
it um they
um we all know how that looks they these
power strips out there have um many
different kinds of small power supplies
uh that can overheat and that can just
fall out uh all these these things uh
are are quite challenging if it's in the
same wreck that you also need for
infrastructure and where you want
reliability so the uh the main takeaway
is it needs uh it needs to be
managed and um these are um this is a
work in progress you um if you want it
to be accessible for many members um you
need to with very little complication be
able to add more devices pretty much
mously and that only goes um if that's
um if it's not a huge spaghetti mess of
of loose cables um which the pictures
don't show that is right after tidying
up it is believe me it's super
neat so what our idea is um for the
future is to make a kind of a a campsite
kind of setup where you come in from the
back and each Shelf has a little maybe
10 Port switch and then we can get away
with very short cables so to keep it
manageable the main goal is to get more
members on board that uh have a tiny
machine and get to play with it so more
machines is the entire idea more people
that have more experience with small
things on the
internet um and more
asns
yeah so if we look uh on bdp appearing
to be then we have we are the we tied
for the seventh largest uh neutral
facility in
Denmark um so we hope to get up to top
four soon and then last thing is just
that we have um there's another talk
about our inter exchange uh on day three
and we have a Meetup uh on day three
after that as well uh to talk more about
the VDP experiences and haer spaces
