Why OpenBGPD?


performance, security, reliability
make use of tcp md5 and ipsec, current route servers cannot

close contact between developers and decix
improve filtering capabilities
best path selection per peer, after filter?

redundant route servers, using carp
failover is not hitless (yet), as we cannot take over the tcp sessions, but it is reasonably fast

goal: when the test server made everybody happy, use OpenBGPD route-servers at decix in production
