The main discussion is around which is better, N-in-1 or 1-for-1?
While, many comments indicate the preference with support from only
experiences.
My question is: why not both?
I agree on that point. More over:
- architecturally speaking, I don't see any blocking point in having
both, even working at the same time.
- there is a patch proposal for (sever)all VRs handled inside a single
zebra daemon.
- there is a use-case associated with measured numbers, showing the
interest of this flavor
So my question is: how can we move forward i.e. have the multi-VRF
support inside a single zebra merged into quagga mainline ? are there
some more code review and/or changes that need to be done ?
If/when somebody comes with a use-case that makes sense with one zebra
par VRF (or per group of VRFs), I think he/she would be welcomed with
the associated patch.
Note also that I have the same approach of the ospfd stuff: the patch
for multi-ospf daemons is here, and I believe in its use-case. I think
that it can be made compatible with the multi-VRF zebra, hence offering
not only multi-instance ospf but also multi-VRF ospf; so it's really
worth having it merged into quagga mainstream as well (unless of course
there are oppositions or required changes related to some code review).
If/when a need a single ospf daemon capable of multi-VRF appears with a
use-case, let's have a look at the associated patch !
Best regards
