[dev] Integrating DLEP with FRR

[Susheela Francis]

Hi Donald,
I have an independent DLEP stack. I have not been able to see the linux kernel routing table.
The stack passes 5 metrics to its peers. The 5 metrics are Maximum Data Rate, Current Data Rate, Latency, Resources and Relative Link Quality. (Reference RFC 8175)

I also have a program to convert DLEP metrics to OSPF metrics.

I need the DLEP stack to talk to FRR so that I can pass the radio information on to the other OSPF speaking routers on the network?

I can think of only two ways to do this
1. Integrate DLEP with FRR (as a daemon), if there is a provision for that.
2. Make the two stacks talk using the kernel routing table?


Can you please share your thoughts on the same?

Regards
Susheela

Susheela -

We are going to need a bit more information.  What do these DLEP routes look like in the linux kernel?

`ip route show`

What do they look like in FRR?  `show ip route`
