Announce PI prefix
PI announcement allows you to use your own block of PI (provider-independent) IP addresses. In this case, the PI prefix IP addresses are announced through Selectel's AS (Autonomous System).
Announcement schemes
One of the circuits can be used for connection:
- direct — available for IPv4 subnets only. No gateway is required on your equipment: the prefix is announced via AS Selectel.
- static — available for both IPv4 and IPv6 subnets. The gateway for the subnet is your router and must be in the Selectel address subspace.
