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"; }; } ...

2016-05-10Merge branch 'int-new' into int-new-mergedJan Moskyto Matejka
2016-05-10Build system reworked to one global Makefile with includes and no nestingJan Moskyto Matejka
Also removed the lib-dir merging with sysdep. Updated #include's accordingly. Fixed make doc on recent Debian together with moving generated doc into objdir. Moved Makefile.in into root dir Retired all.o and birdlib.a Linking the final binaries directly from all the .o files.

2014-02-06Many changes in I/O and OSPF sockets and packet handling.Ondrej Zajicek
I/O: - BSD: specify src addr on IP sockets by IP_HDRINCL - BSD: specify src addr on UDP sockets by IP_SENDSRCADDR - Linux: specify src addr on IP/UDP sockets by IP_PKTINFO - IPv6: specify src addr on IP/UDP sockets by IPV6_PKTINFO - Alternative SKF_BIND flag for binding to IP address - Allows IP/UDP sockets without tx_hook, on these sockets a packet is discarded when TX queue is full - Use consistently SOL_ for socket layer values. OSPF: - Packet src addr is always explicitly set - Support for secondary addresses in BSD - Dynamic RX/TX buffers - Fixes some minor buffer overruns - Interface option 'tx length' - Names for vlink pseudoifaces (vlinkX) - Vlinks use separate socket for TX - Vlinks do not use fixed associated iface - Fixes TTL for direct unicast packets - Fixes DONTROUTE for OSPF sockets - Use ifa->ifname instead of ifa->iface->name
