Possibility of adding bgpsec code to the BIRD repo.
I had a question for the development team. My group, and me specifically, have been working on adding BGPsec support into the BIRD code base. We initially hoped to have it merged into the standard BIRD repository and are getting to the point when that would be appropriate. The main question I have is, are you interested in looking at and/or merging the code into your repo, optimally sometime in the next 2-3 months? As background, the current version is built on the BIRD 1.4.5 code base and the BGPsec code can be included, or not, at build time. A slightly older version of the code is available at: http://bgpsec.tislabs.com/. There is still some final updates to the protocol being completed at the IETF. I would want to update the code to that version of the protocol (which is very likely the final version) as well as merge it with the 1.5 code base over the next month or two. -Mike -- Michael Baer PARSONS baerm@tislabs.com
Hi, I would like to see bgpsec in bird. Any comments from the .cz guys? Rgds, Stefan Michael Baer <baerm@tislabs.com> schrieb am Do., 3. März 2016, 20:56:

Thank you and your team very much for this effort and the code. We're interested in BGPSec and merging the code into our repo, but probably not in the current major branch 1.x. We're planning make a release of IPv4 and IPv6 integrated version 2.x too. There will be a native support of RPKI and we would like to merge your code to 2.x version. Cheers, BIRD Team

PT> Cheers, PT> BIRD Team Excellent, with the MP_REACH requirement in BGPsec, the BGPsec should fit into a mixed ipv4/v6 code base better in any case. The current development BGPsec code (not the release on https://securerouting.net/bird) is actually using most of BIRD's 1.4.5 IPV6 BGP code to do IPv4 because of MP_REACH. Is there a target date for the 2.x release? -Mike -- Michael Baer baerm@tislabs.com Senior Software Engineer Parsons
