2017-12-07Babel: Revamp cost computation and run route selection when cost changeOndrej Zajicek (work)
Also fix several minor bugs and add 'limit' option for k-out-of-j link sensing strategy. Change default from 8-of-16 to 12-of-16. Change IHU expiry factor from 1.5 to 3.5 (as in RFC 6126).
2017-12-07Timers: Parse and format functions for microsecond timesOndrej Zajicek (work)
Date/time output (e.g. in logs, show commands) can use %f to specify subsecond time. By default, millisecond precision is used in output.

2017-06-09Babel: Add documentation for dual-stack operation and optionsOndrej Zajicek (work)
This updates the documentation for the Babel protocol to mention the fact that it now supports dual-stack operation, and adds documentation for the new next hop options. Thanks to Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@toke.dk> for the patch.

2017-04-26Flowspec: Max tcp mask length is 12 bitsOndrej Zajicek (work)
2017-04-25Nest: Update of show route cmdOndrej Zajicek (work)
Some code cleanup, multiple bugfixes, allows to specify also channel for 'show route export'. Interesting how such apparenty simple thing like show route cmd has plenty of ugly corner cases.
2017-04-12Client: multitable version of show routeJan Moskyto Matejka
2017-03-29Netlink: Change default kernel metric to 32Ondrej Zajicek (work)
This avoids collisions with non-BIRD routes in kernel tables.
2017-03-29BGP: Update list of supported standardsOndrej Zajicek (work)
2017-03-22Merge branch 'nexthop-merged' into int-newJan Moskyto Matejka
2017-03-22Filter: Check whether IP is 4 or 6Jan Moskyto Matejka
2017-03-14Minor cleanupsOndrej Zajicek (work)
BTW, 'prefices' is hypercorrection, as 'prefix' is from 'praefixum' with plural 'praefixa'.
2017-03-14BGP: Allow to specify interface for regular sessionsOndrej Zajicek (work)
This may be useful if multple interfaces share the same network range. Thanks to Fritz Grimpen for the original patch.

2017-02-23BGP: Allow exchanging LOCAL_PREF with eBGP peersOndrej Zajicek (work)
Adds option 'allow bgp_local_pref' to override the usual restriction of LOCAL_PREF on eBGP sessions. Thanks to Lennert Buytenhek for the patch.

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.
