CRXN stands for **C**ommunity **R**un e**X**pansive **N**etwork. It's a computer network run by the _community for the community_.
|
CRXN
|
||||||
We are a dual-stack IP-based network supporting both IPv4 and IPv6. We are focused on having a network that is accessible to all,
|
======
|
||||||
reliable in terms of having redundant links and diverse. The first part means that we are welcome to anyone who wants to join, the
|
|
||||||
second part means that we focus on having a lot of links between adjacent routers such that if one is to fail there exists a fallback
|
CRXN stands for **C**ommunity **R**un e**X**pansive **N**etwork. It's a computer network _run by the community for the community_.
|
||||||
(in the case where the route is only available through said router - if there are more routers then this is mitigated). We also strive
|
We provide an IPv6 (that's the freshest Internet Protocol out there to date) and on CRXN anything that can speak IPv6
|
||||||
to have diverse links - this means linking over the Internet whether it be clearnet or via an overlay network such as Yggdrasil or CJDNS
|
will be able to function correctly - a network without borders! We are focused with having a network that really focuses
|
||||||
or in the best case creating physical links.
|
on the "end-to-end" principal of IP - that is to say that if you want to run something and make it available to other then
|
||||||
|
you won't have to worry about NAT-traversal, port fowarding, lack of raw IP support and all the other non-sense that IPv4
|
||||||
|
created (due to lack of addresses). Compared to the clearnet (normal Internet) there isn't much fuss involved around getting
|
||||||
|
a network ID assigned to you and so forth, we truly are for the community and all our members take some of their own time
|
||||||
|
to work on their network and the greater CRXN inter-network as a whole.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It's a great place to test out new protocols, networking projects, play games, exchange ideas and learn about networking,
|
||||||
|
routing and network sub-systems themselves. You also get to learn how CRXN is put toghether which is a great way to learn
|
||||||
|
networking with those that run networks already themselves.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The network has a few goals that we always want to maintain as to not lose our allure:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Be a network for learning
|
||||||
|
* We don't want to shun people away from using some new
|
||||||
|
routing protocol as it might be cool and interesting to
|
||||||
|
learn
|
||||||
|
2. Be reliable
|
||||||
|
* Of course when learning people should also make sure
|
||||||
|
their routers don't just accept any route without making
|
||||||
|
sure its valid - hence network operators should make sure
|
||||||
|
their networks operate even when some are causing mayhem
|
||||||
|
(malicious or learning by trial and error)
|
||||||
|
* Also shouldn't be painfully slow
|
||||||
|
3. Diverse routing
|
||||||
|
* We want to try out protocols like **ospf**, **babel**, **bgp**
|
||||||
|
and so on and so forth
|
||||||
|
* We want to build a network out of a mix and match of these all
|
||||||
|
working in harmony toghether
|
||||||
|
* Monocultures suck!
|
||||||
|
4. Usable
|
||||||
|
* We have DNS, we have voice chat servers and we have IRC (we
|
||||||
|
even have gaming!) but we can always do with much **much more**!
|
||||||
|
* We want the users, _you_, to make the network usable for your
|
||||||
|
needs - who knows it might provide a service that helps out
|
||||||
|
someone else
|
||||||
|
5. Peering
|
||||||
|
* We want people to setup redundant links using whatever protocols
|
||||||
|
they want, be it **wireguard**, **GRE**, **fastd** etc.
|
||||||
|
* We want there to be interesting links and diversity
|
||||||
|
6. _Chaos and Order_
|
||||||
|
* The network should never stop experimenting
|
||||||
|
* But it should have 99% uptime and safety fallbacks
|
||||||
|
* If you want to experiment - then go ahead and try cuase
|
||||||
|
as little disruption as possible
|
||||||
|
* If you run a node - make it secure - sign routes etc.
|
||||||
|
to prevent others from experimenting from messing your
|
||||||
|
network up
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We aim to create a more open Internet available to everyone and a place to learn about IP routing and networking in general.

### Ranges
|
### IPv6 Ranges
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The subnets that we use so far are the below private ranges.
|
Aggregate prefixes are organized as /48 IPv6 ULAs by region:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* For **IPv4** we are running on the `10.0.0.0/8` range.
|
1. European CRXN
|
||||||
* For **IPv6** we are running on the `fd8a:6111:3b1a::/48` range.
|
* Space: `fd8a:6111:3b1a::/48`
|
||||||
|
2. Southern African CRXN
|
||||||
|
* Space: `fded:4178:23fe::/48`
|
||||||
|
3. Indian CRXN
|
||||||
|
* Space: `fdfa:1685:3d1::/48`
|
||||||
|
4. Russian CRXN
|
||||||
|
* Space: `fda1:8885:300d::/48`
|
||||||
|
5. American CRXN
|
||||||
|
* Space: `fd68:b488:442c::/48`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
IPv4 note: If we run out we will simply use more private ranges but we will keep out the `192.168.0.0/16` range such that home networks (sane ones) will not have any clashes.
|
The regional range sare not fixed in the sense that, for example, you could
|
||||||
|
register a range in the Southern African range whilst your network is actaully
|
||||||
|
physically located in Europe. We only do this to organize the network more
|
||||||
|
easily.

The network is currently made up of around ~10 nodes so far with a few services running on

daemon being used at this moment is babel and for tunnelling we are using fastd to establish VPN connections at an L2 layer between sites.
|
the network, such as Mumble, [BonoboNET](/projects/bonobonet) (IRC), gaming (Xonotic, Minetest)
|
||||||
|
and a few websites. We even have DNS which can resolve `.crxn` domains (find out more about that here (TODO).)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In terms of transit we run fastd over clearnet, Yggdrasil and CJDNS.

You can see the looking glass here (TODO).

You can view the babel part of the network on the [live router map](http://deavmi.assigned.network:4444).

You can also see a live map of the subset of users who are only running

the original babel routing software, _babeld_, here, on the [live router map](http://deavmi.assigned.network:4444).
