Hi, you have actually two mirrors listed in our mirror list at the 
moment: http://ba.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/CentOS/ and 
http://ct.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/CentOS/

Because the new mirror's IP address seemed to match ba.mirror.garr.it, 
I've updated the entry of ba.mirror.garr.it to the information you 
provided. HTTPS is not required, supporting only HTTP is OK.

I didn't see any IPv6 addresses listed for your mirrors, but based on 
DNS, I've now added 2001:760:ffff:b6:4:100::/112 to the ACL so you 
should be able to rsync from msync.centos.org over IPv6. As for IPv4, 
90.147.160.64/28 is in the ACL now. If these needs changing, please let 
us know.

As for pull-rsync, you are probably doing that already, ie. periodic 
rsyncs from rsync://eu-msync.centos.org/CentOS/ via entries in crontab 
or similar. If you were actually referring to push mirroring where the 
master server contacts a mirror to trigger a sync, unfortunately we 
don't have such mechanism currently available.
