## About dn42
dn42 is a big dynamic [VPN](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_network), which employs Internet technologies ([BGP](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bgp), whois database, [DNS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System), etc). Participants connect to each other using network tunnels ([GRE](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generic_Routing_Encapsulation), [OpenVPN](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Openvpn), [Tinc](http://tinc-vpn.org/), [IPsec](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPsec)), and exchange routes thanks to the Border Gateway Protocol. Network addresses are assigned in the `172.22.0.0/16`range, and private AS numbers are used: see [registry](/services/Whois). We're in process of expanding the used address space to include `172.20.0.0/16`.

A number of services are provided on the network: see [internal](http://wiki.dn42/internal/Internal-Services) (only available from within dn42). Also, dn42 is interconnected with other networks, such as [ChaosVPN](http://wiki.hamburg.ccc.de/ChaosVPN) or some [Freifunk](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freifunk) networks.
