Technical Overview

Votion Cloud’s 2105 Anycast Routing Nodes leverage BGP anycast to deliver DDoS mitigation, DNSSEC validation, and zero‑trust edge enforcement from a globally distributed footprint. Each node runs a hardened Linux kernel (5.15‑rt) with sysctl parameters tuned for packet‑processing latency (net.core.netdev_max_backlog=250000, net.ipv4.tcp_fastopen=3) and uses FRR 9.2 for BGP daemon operations.

Control‑Plane Design

  • Anycast Prefix: 203.0.113.0/24 (IPv4) & 2001:db8::/32 (IPv6) announced from every PoP.
  • Route‑Map Policy: Inbound set community 65000:2105 tags traffic for telemetry; outbound set local-preference 200 prefers local egress.
  • Graceful Restart: Enabled with bgp graceful-restart restart-time 120 to survive control‑plane churn.

Data‑Plane Acceleration

XDP‑based eBPF programs (xdp_anycast_filter) perform per‑packet ACL checks before the kernel network stack, achieving < 2 µs per packet at 100 Gbps line rate. The eBPF map anycast_allowlist is synchronized via a gRPC control channel from the central policy engine.
