Step-by-Step BYOIP Process
Step 1
Confirm you are on a monthly dedicated server plan (daily rentals and VPS are not eligible).
Step 2
Prepare a valid ROA and a route object for each subnet you intend to announce.
Step 3
Decide whether to announce under GTHost's ASN or your own ASN; if using your own ASN, prepare proof of ownership.
Step 4
Open a support ticket at cp.gthost.com/en/tickets including the subnet(s), intended ASN, and links to the ROA and route object.
Step 5
GTHost configures the BGP announcement for the subnet on the assigned server(s).
Cost and Limitations
| Setup Fee | $50 one-time per announced subnet |
| Recurring Fee | $20 monthly per announced subnet |
| Multi-Subnet Pricing | Fees apply per subnet (e.g., three /24 blocks incur three setup fees) |
| Reuse Across Servers | Same range can be reused across multiple servers in one location only |
| Cross-Datacenter Reuse | Not permitted; subnets cannot be shared across different data centers |
Troubleshooting & Gotchas
- BYOIP is restricted to monthly dedicated servers; it is not available on daily rental or VPS plans.
- A subnet announced in one data center cannot be reused in another data center, which affects multi-region deployments.
- Using your own ASN requires proof of ownership in addition to the ROA and route object.
