<p dir="auto">FRRouting Version 6.0 is released.</p>
<p dir="auto">This is a major new version with some new daemons:</p>
<ul>
<li>Staticd: New daemon responsible for management of static routes</li>
<li>ISISd: Implement dst-src routing as per draft-ietf-isis-ipv6-dst-src-routing</li>
<li>BFDd: new daemon for BFD (Bidrectional Forwarding Detection). Responsible
for notifying link changes to make routing protocols converge faster.</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">Major changes are the new Static Daemon and the BFD daemon.</p>
<p dir="auto">The Staticd from now on controls the static routes and is (most likely) required<br>
in all setups in addition to zebra (Zebra does no longer maintain the static routes).<br>
Please be aware that staticd has it’s own configuration file if you are using<br>
per-daemon configs (instead of the integrated config). If this file is not there<br>
(i.e. transition), then the static routes will be read from the zebra config file<br>
instead, but new saves will write a new static file and remove them from zebra.<br>
Please be aware of this in case of a downgrade from 6.0 to a pre-6.0 zebra with<br>
per-daemon config</p>
