Comparing open source BGP stacks
Compare some simple performance characteristics of three Open Source BGP stacks: BIRD, FRRouting, and Gobgp.
These have different sets of features, for instance both FRR and BIRD have more full routing stacks that include other protocols. One thing specific for BIRD; for reasons I don’t understand, bgperf by default creates a separate routing table for every neighbor. I should probably also see if this gobgp vs quagga with prefix lists, slide 15 is still relevant, that Quagga/FRR doesn’t scale with the number of policy lines.
