Hello!I have great news for you! My colleagues did a fantastic job and after a while we can present a new BIRD release - 2.0.8. Here is a list of changes:
o Automatic channel reloads based on RPKI changes
o Multiple static routes with the same network
o Use bitmaps to keep track of exported routes
o Per-channel debug flags
o CLI commands show info from multiple protocols
o Linux: IPv4 routes with IPv6 nexthops
o Filter: Optimized redesign of prefix sets
o Filter: Improved type checking of user filters
o Filter: New src/dst accessors for Flowspec and SADR
o Filter: New 'weight' route attribute
o Filter: BGP path mask loop operator
o Filter: Remove quitbird command
o RIP: Demand circuit support (RFC 2091)
o BGP: New 'allow as sets' and 'enforce first as' options
o BGP: Support for BGP hostname capability
o BGP: Support for MD5SIG with dynamic BGP
o BFD: Optional separation of IPv4 / IPv6 BFD instances
o BFD: Per-peer session options
o RPKI: Allow build without libSSH
o RPKI: New 'ignore max length' option
o OSPF: Redesign of handling of unnumbered PtPs
o OSPF: Allow key id 0 in authentication
o Babel: Use onlink flag for routes with unreachable next hop
o Many bugfixes
Notes:
Automatic channel reloads based on RPKI changes are enabled by
default,
but require import table enabled when used in BGP import
filter.
BIRD now uses bitmaps to keep track of exported routes instead of
re-evaluation of export filters. That should improve speed and
accuracy in
route export handling during reconfiguration, but takes
some more memory.
Per-channel debug logging and some CLI commands (like 'show ospf
neighbors')
defaulting to all protocol instances lead to some minor
changes in log and
CLI output. Caution is recommended when logs or
CLI output are monitored by
scripts.
So please test it, run it and write your feedback!
Cheers
Ondrej
