L2vpn MPLS AFI
by Junior Corazza 28 Dec '19

28 Dec '19

Hello people. I was testing FRR 7.2 to use it as RouteReflecor for l2vpn and l3vpn. The problem is that there is no address family for l2vpn mpls, there is only for evpn. Can you tell me if it is possible to use RouteReflector for L2vpn Kompella? I mean, is there this feature? If not, can you tell me if this is in the roadmap of the project?

question for those that know
by o1bigtenor 16 Dec '19

16 Dec '19

Greetings It seems that I will be allowed to enter the 'modern' internet world by next fall. By that I mean that we are hopefully going to be able to have a direct individual fiber connection. That means that some things really need updating. One of the bits of stuff I'm looking at is a managed switch. Am finding that some such are built on ONIE which means that I get to start on a Debian platform (goodie - - - I'm already sorta comfortable with that!). What I don't know anything about and am really unsure of is - - - - is FRRouting something that I can use to control run or otherwise use a managed switch? (Am really wanting to use open source software - - - - just quite tired of being for sale on the other side.) Hopefully the question isn't impertinent - - - - I don't know enough about networking to know what to look for and the parts of FRR seem to be the same list that is mentioned for a level 3 switch so - - - - - help? TIA

FRR-stable DEB for Ubuntu 19.10 (Eoan)
by Volodymyr Litovka 16 Dec '19

16 Dec '19

Dear colleagues, are there any plans on getting FRR-stable package available for Ubuntu 19.10 (Eoan)? There is no this package on deb.frrouting.com and suggestion is to ask on mailing list, while mailing list archives are silent on this. Thank you. -- Volodymyr Litovka "Vision without Execution is Hallucination." -- Thomas Edison

insert RIP routes into specified table (Linux)
by frr user 10 Dec '19

10 Dec '19

Hello to all. I am trying to use frr 6.0.2 on Debian 10.2; Show, plz, the simplest example of how to insert a route accepted by the RIP protocol into the specified table? For example, the route 192.0.2.0/24 received via RIP needs to be inserted into table #250. Or tell me, do I need to use VRF for this? Thanks.

Hi, Yup, that’s why. The systemd service file is not dynamic and does not take into account the actual install path. You may be able to use systemd to run frr as your user, in your home, by modifying the paths in the service file. However, that is not really what this service file is meant for. Depending on how you configured your frr build, just changing the various paths of the service might be enough. frrinit.sh might give you some trouble though, as this script is rather huge and convoluted. Good luck!

Installing learned routes in the kernel routing table
by Daniel Corbe 08 Dec '19

08 Dec '19

I apologize for asking a question which in all probability has a really obvious answer. I have a freshly installed FRR 7.2 from sources on Alpine Linux. The 'zebra' process is running as id=frr and I have a working BGP session. The issue is, it's not installing routes into the kernel routing table. Being that zebra and bgpd are running as the 'frr' user, I made sure zebra had cap_net_admin: # getcap zebra zebra = cap_net_admin+p My Running config: # show run Building configuration...
