With very busy deployments, RPKI may kill cache connection too early.
Instead of that, we want it to keep loading if any data is waiting to
be read and the reason for delay is just our congestion.
Also, when we kill the session because of actually slow cache, we want
to reload from scratch as the data we have is unreliable and nobody
knows whether the state is still valid.
Implement BGP Send hold timer according to draft-ietf-idr-bgp-sendholdtimer.
The Send hold timer drops the session if the neighbor is sending keepalives,
but does not receive our messages, causing the TCP connection to stall.
Some BGP capabilities change the BGP behavior in a significant way, so if
the configuration depends on it, it is better to not establish BGP
session when the capability is not available.
Add several BGP option to require individual BGP capabilities during
session negotiation.
The Kernel protocol, even with the option 'learn' enabled, ignores
direct routes created by the OS kernel (on Linux these are routes
with rtm_protocol == RTPROT_KERNEL).
Implement optional behavior where both OS kernel and third-party routes
are learned, it can be enabled by 'learn all' option.
Minor changes by committer.
Old configs do not define MPLS domains and may use a static protocol
to define static MPLS routes.
When MPLS channel is the only channel of static protocol, handle it
as a main channel. Also, define implicit MPLS domain if needed and
none is defined.
When regular event was added from work event, we did remember that
regular event list was empty and therefore we did not use zero time
in poll(). This leads to ~3 s latency in route reload during
reconfiguration.
When a MPLS channel is reloaded, it should reload all regular MPLS-aware
channels. This causes re-evaluation of routes in FEC map and possibly
reannouncement of MPLS routes.
Use mpls_new_label() / mpls_free_label() also for static labels, to keep
track of allocated labels and to enforce label ranges.
Static label allocations always use static label range, regardless of
configured label range.
Instead of just using route attributes, static routes with
static MPLS labels can be defined just by e.g.:
route 10.1.1.0/24 mpls 100 via 10.1.2.1 mpls 200;
The L3VPN protocol implements RFC 4364 BGP/MPLS VPNs using MPLS backbone.
It works similarly to pipe. It connects IP table (one per VRF) with (global)
VPN table. Routes passed from VPN table to IP table are stripped of RD and
filtered by import targets, routes passed in the other direction are extended
with RD, MPLS labels and export targets in extended communities. A separate
MPLS channel is used to announce MPLS routes for the labels.
The new labeling policy MPLS_POLICY_VRF assigns one label to all routes
(from the same FEC map associated with one VRF), while replaces their
next hops with a lookup to a VRF table. This is useful for L3VPN
protocol.
