2017-04-12Client: multitable version of show routeJan Moskyto Matejka
2017-03-29Netlink: Change default kernel metric to 32Ondrej Zajicek (work)

2017-03-14Minor cleanupsOndrej Zajicek (work)
BTW, 'prefices' is hypercorrection, as 'prefix' is from 'praefixum' with plural 'praefixa'.

2016-12-07RPKI protocol with one cache server per protocolPavel Tvrdík
The RPKI protocol (RFC 6810) using the RTRLib (http://rpki.realmv6.org/) that is integrated inside the BIRD's code. Implemeted transports are: - unprotected transport over TCP - secure transport over SSHv2 Example configuration of bird.conf: ... roa4 table r4; roa6 table r6; protocol rpki { debug all; # Import both IPv4 and IPv6 ROAs roa4 { table r4; }; roa6 { table r6; }; # Set cache server (validator) address, # overwrite default port 323 remote "rpki-validator.realmv6.org" port 8282; # Overwrite default time intervals retry 10; # Default 600 seconds refresh 60; # Default 3600 seconds expire 600; # Default 7200 seconds } protocol rpki { debug all; # Import only IPv4 routes roa4 { table r4; }; # Set cache server address to localhost, # use default ports tcp => 323 or ssh => 22 remote 127.0.0.1; # Use SSH transport instead of unprotected transport over TCP ssh encryption { bird private key "/home/birdgeek/.ssh/id_rsa"; remote public key "/home/birdgeek/.ssh/known_hosts"; user "birdgeek"; }; } ...

2016-09-21Add !~ operator to filter grammarPavel Tvrdik
2016-09-19KRT: Add krt_scope attributeOndrej Zajicek (work)
Add a new route attribute, krt_scope, to expose the Linux kernel route scope. Constants from /etc/iproute2/rt_scopes (prefixed by "ips_") are expected to be used with the attribute. Both import and export are supported. Also, the patch fixes device route export to the kernel, by setting link scope automatically.
2016-09-15KRT: Add kernel metric protocol optionOndrej Zajicek (work)
Kernel routes with different metrics do not clash with each other, therefore using dedicated metric value is a reliable way to avoid overwriting routes from other sources (e.g. kernel device routes). Although kernel route metric could already be set as a route attribute by filters, that is not consistent with the way how Linux kernel handles route metric - not just a route attribute, but a part of a route key.
2016-07-19Doc: Fix password ID option descriptionOndrej Zajicek (work)
Thanks to Alexander Velkov for noticing it

2016-04-13BSD: Add the IPsec SA/SP database entries controlOndrej Zajicek (work)
