4/10 Technical Meeting Notes
by Quentin Young 12 Apr '18

12 Apr '18

Issues ====== - #2018: Vincent, Philippe: we would like to be able to call iptables & other external programs from zebra Donald, Lou: Security concerns here, would be better to use a module Lou: Perhaps use FPM to interface with Zebra without integrating this code directly into Zebra Vincent, Philippe: We'll take a look - #2030: Donald: Requested that start/stop of FRR on Alpine be similar to other platforms, submitter agreed, work in progress - #2040: Unsure if bug, probable workaround commented in issue Pull Requests ============= - #1853: Donald to continue looking at this PR, still some config-related CI issues to clear up - #1881: Olivier: not quite correct yet, will update to use label manager & change CLI - #1883: Quentin & Donald: It does not make sense to add a checkpatch patch that will run for a single PR and never again Lou: Can't guarantee that it will never run again, and important to have clear policy Paul: How about we document agreed-upon exceptions as a compromise? All: sounds good - #1905: Donald to look again - #1916: Waiting on Mitesh to do what needs to be done - #1950: Donald to review again - #1976: Donald: NetNS is a poor abstraction that requires this patch... Vincent: This is how it's done on non-VRF supporting platforms [provides some references] Donald: Will read references, review again and continue conversation - #2009: Merged - #2025: See discussion for #2018 - #2033: Donald + Lou to review - #2035: In discussions - #2036: Philippe has review comments, Donald to look at changes addressing previous comments - #2038: Merged - #2039: Broken packaging for now - #2043: Debug cleanups & route replace semantic improvements for Zebra Renato to review

Announcing PBR for FRR
by Donald Sharp 11 Apr '18

11 Apr '18

All - I'd like to announce the availability of a new daemon for FRR on the master branch. PBR( Policy Based Routing ) allows operators to setup policy maps that allow special control forwarding. To configure PBR, see `doc/user/pbr.rst`. Here is a quick example of how to configure: nexthop-group EVA nexthop 4.3.2.1 swp5 nexthop 6.4.3.2 ! pbr-map DONNA seq 10 match src-ip 192.168.210.0/24 match dst-ip 192.168.140.0/24 set nexthop-group EVA ! int swp54 pbr-policy DONNA ! This configuration says, on the incoming interface swp54 if the src matches 192.168.210.0/24 and the dest matches 192.168.140.0/24, use nexthop-group EVA for forwarding the packet. I'd like to thank Vivek, Don, Quentin, Philippe and Russ for their hard work on getting this code into FRR. thanks! donald

FRRouting - RIP VRF Support.
by amit.tiwari＠inventum.net 09 Apr '18

09 Apr '18

Hi Kunihiro, I have compiled FRRouting master branch and deployed it on my router, bgp and ospf are working fine with vrf. Whereas, in case of RIP, vrf doesn't seems to be working, there is no vrf support even at CLI level. May we know, when are you guys releasing frrouting with full vrf support in RIP. Regards, Amit Kumar Tiwari 9953769181

why fork Quagga?
by Carla Schroder 04 Apr '18

04 Apr '18

Hello FRR devs, I'm writing an article on FRRouting for Linux.com. I've read a number of articles on why it was forked from Quagga (for example http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.com/netsp/free-range-routing-protocol… and http://packetpushers.net/free-range-routing-project-forks-quagga/) Is there anything anyone would like to add or correct? It's not a huge deal and I'm not looking for scandals. Readers will want to know the reasons for forking. It looks like the tl;dr version is 'quagga was bottlenecked by a single maintainer and development stalled'. I've also seen discussion on frrouting.org about new features and support for additional protocols-- anyone care to comment what these new things mean for network admins? You don't have to write a book, summaries like "We're working on support for Foov5, which means transferring good beer securely over untrusted networks!" are good. If there is anything else you think is cool and needs to be shared, throw that in too. I will attribute any comments that I use, so if you want to be anonymous let me know. My deadline is Tuesday evening. I know that's not much time--welcome to my world :) thanks, Carla -- ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Ace Linux guru + carlaschroder.com + Where words fail, music speaks. + ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
