OpenBGPD 8.7 released
Claudio Jeker (claudio@) announced the release of version 8.7 of OpenBGPD, the OpenBSD project's Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) daemon:
We have released OpenBGPD 8.7, which will be arriving in the OpenBGPD directory of your local OpenBSD mirror soon. This release includes the following changes to the previous release: * Cache the Adj-RIB-Out for sessions that have not been down for more than 1h. This significantly improves synchronisation time of peers that flap. * Implement RFC 8538: Notification Message Support for BGP Graceful Restart. * Add support for RFC 8654, extended messages. * In bgplgd add additional endpoints to query the Adj-RIB-In and Adj-RIB-Out. * Bump internal message size limit to 128k and handle up to 10 000 ASPA SPAS entries as suggested in draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-profile. * Various improvements to the ibuf API including a new reader API which is used to make all message parsing in bgpd memory safe. * Added support for IPsec and TCP MD5 to RTR sessions. OpenBGPD-portable is known to compile and run on FreeBSD, NetBSD and the Linux distributions Alpine, Debian, CentOS/RHEL/Rocky, Fedora, openSUSE/SLE, and Ubuntu. It is our hope that packagers take interest and help adapt OpenBGPD-portable to more distributions. We welcome feedback and improvements from the broader community. Thanks to all of the contributors who helped make this release possible.
