#frrouting — Public Fediverse posts

Freshly updated: my AS201379 page.

IPv6-only, FreeBSD + FRR, 2a06:9801:1c::/48.

Now with an at-a-glance table (ASN, AS-SET, contacts), full upstream list and new EVIX alongside LocIX Düsseldorf and FogIXP.

Peering policy is open. If we share a presence at any of those three, I'd love to peer: [email protected]

Is anyone using #frrouting in #guix? I'm trying to get babeld to run over my VPN network. I've got it running on the remote end where it's OpenWrt, I want to start frrouting on my #guixrouter and have it start babeld and use similar settings, it look like /gnu/store/...-frrouting/sbin/frrinit.sh should be run to start the daemons and it'll default to looking in /etc/frr/daemons and /etc/frr/frr.conf

but is there a guix approved way to get this up and running or is it roll-your-own?

IPv6 should be treated the same as, if not better than, IPv4!

I am confused by FRR.

https://docs.frrouting.org/en/latest/bgp.html

"-l, --listenon - Specify specific IP addresses for bgpd to listen on[...] Note that this option implies the –no_kernel option, and no learned routes will be installed into the linux kernel."

But they are installed into the kernel table! I can see it (with ip -6 route show table 50).

Is this because it's an bgpd option, and the routes go via zebra instead?

Config:
https://privatebin.net/?6461c22964ba20b8#BtwSKdrrRPu2tx8DQwfqyBaDU2gjdD5MqSYTUejXBTMq
and
https://privatebin.net/?34bd84b23b49a596#AVw68P7USz458c8hgk91GZ9dBmJZCADEw2Mq2gYtBw7y

And even if it did. what if I want to run multiple instances of bgpd and to install the routes into the kernel?

edit:

The docs seem to be wrong. Adding "-n", the routes are indeed not installed in the routing table.

Y'all know what... this #X11 -> #Wayland switch is a great parallel on why we haven't ditched and rewritten #FRRouting yet:

Yes, it's >25 year old code, some of it truly toxic and radioactive, and some really poor design too.

But writing a new one is yrs of pain to get it to 90% (that also need to be funded = 404 here), and then a decade to fix half the edge case hellbugs.

It's written in the blood of previous users&bugs. (h/t @benjojo for that idiom, I had no wording for that concept before)

Больше, чем Quagga — пакет для маршрутизации FRRouting

Есть мнение, что ИТ-сообщество можно условно поделить на тех, кто знаком с пакетом маршрутизации FRRouting, и тех, кто никогда о нем не слышал. Мы решили обсудить его возможности, мнения комьюнити, а также отличия от пакета Quagga.

A burst of +1's today in the issue for #FRRouting supporting #IPv6 as an underlay! (I have a use-case where it would certainly make life much easier, but it would also need to do so without sacrificing reliability.)

https://github.com/FRRouting/frr/issues/5885

Wanted to share a recent project of mine from past few weeks to turn my #nanopi r5s #sbc into a really potent pure debian Linux router that was sane to manage.

I was able to successfully switch over this weekend and retire my edgerouter-6p.

The formula is basically #ansible #systemd stuff #netplan #dnsmasq #frrouting and #foomuuri -- the lynchpin solution for sanely doing robust zone-to-zone firewalls using #nftables
