Activate BGP for your Project via Client Portal to enable local BGP service.
Order two or more BGP-enabled servers and a Floating IP address.
Install BGP agent on your servers and configure Floating IP address.
Announce the same IP address through several servers to establish a primary and secondary routes for a High Availability cluster.
Manage Floating IP addresses dynamically from within your servers without using our Client Portal or API.
Bring your own IP addresses (BYOP) and announce both your own autonomous system (ASN) and subnets through us.
Route incoming requests across multiple data center regions with your announced ASNs to reduce network latency.
Local BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) allows for automated management of IP routing within a Wlvhosting region. This service enables high availability by dynamically controlling IP addresses across multiple servers. If one server goes down, the IP can automatically be reassigned to another active server.
To enable Local BGP, activate it when creating a new project or enable it for an existing project through the Wlvhosting client portal. Projects with Local BGP will have an orange BGP sticker for easy identification.
Access the Local BGP control panel via Networking → Local BGP menu in your Client Portal. There, you can see active BGP configurations, session statuses, and manage BGP-enabled servers.
First, deploy two servers and obtain a Floating IP address. Install the BIRD routing daemon on each server using the provided helper scripts. Configure BIRD to establish BGP sessions with our BGP reflection routers, then assign and configure the Floating IP to be announced by the BGP sessions. This setup ensures that the Floating IP is redirected to the active server, enabling high availability. For detailed steps, check out our knowledge base or reach out to support.
