Description-en: FRRouting suite of internet protocols (BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, ...)
FRRouting implements the routing protocols commonly used in the
internet and private networks to exchange information between routers.
Both IP and IPv6 are supported, as are BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, BABEL, EIGRP,
RIP, LDP, BFD, PIM and NHRP protocols.
.
These protocols are used to turn your system into a dynamic router,
exchanging information about available connections with other routers
in a standards-compliant way. The actual packet forwarding
functionality is provided by the OS kernel.
.
FRRouting is a fork of Quagga with an open community model. The main
git lives on https://github.com/frrouting/frr.git and the project name
is commonly abbreviated as "FRR."
