Internet failover testing for my new node.

I’ve solved the Internet failover issue I was having by using a virtual router running on a cheap VPS. Internet traffic for my node will be routed over 2 x VPN tunnels from my home routers to this virtual router, one VPN tunnel over each Internet service. BGP running over the VPN tunnels allows for rapid failover. Ping testing shows only two ping packets dropped when the primary link goes down, the jump in latency is due to traffic going over a fixed wireless link instead of fibre. This should mean that all channels stay up in the event of an Internet service outage.

The VPS does become a single point of failure but I think this is less likely to go down for an extended period of time than the home Internet services. nostr:note1fl0xj3h2t7wwwj56vuj2axplg66z2t9jdngxvugu3xjx2u6x7qhspwdn0g
