I recently had a chance to catch up with the quagga-babel implementation, and set it up as a leaf node on my laptop and connected it to bloatlab #1, which is running a mixture of the latest babel and stuff that dated back to september. Switching between original babeld and quagga's babel was pretty transparent, and it survived a variety of tests. There were only two differences in the behavior of the two daemons.
1) when connectivity to a destination is lost, babeld puts an 'unreachable' route in place, zebra puts a 'blackhole' route in place. I can see defenses of both methods, is there a way to switch this behavior? 2) the routing tables are identical, except that zebra does not put a p2p route in on the local lan segment. I'll try this on a more core router sometime soon. -- Dave Täht SKYPE: davetaht US Tel: 1-239-829-5608 http://www.bufferbloat.net
