Re: [mpls-linux-devel] small mpls linux

[<bha...@ne...>]

Hi James Leu and Pali,

I think this can be very well possible and I am also trying to make "Linux
Router" which can support all L2/L3 protocols - VLAN, RSTP, RIP, OSPF, BGP,
MPLS, RSVP, layer2 filters(using ebtables), layer3 filters(using iptables),
full firewall operation, but its in very early stages, I need help of the
linux community to do this, I have done feasibility study.

Salient Features:-
====================
1.	There will be common CLI for all protocol configurations.
2.	There will be learning tables in kernel for data traffic forwarding,
so that it can give much better performance then it's giving today.
3.	We can also think of some forwarding engine if possible, which will
give the best performance.
4.	Make linux kernel setting so that is has all supporting modules for
Linux Router only and all other modules and features should be disabled.

Is any one know any active work going in the above area, please let me know.

James Leu: I need your support for MPLS quagga and LDP-portable code
compilation steps on Fedorra 10.

Thanks & Regards
Bhartendu M.

Pali,

I do not have a good answer for you on your search for a small
mpls-linux distribution.  I can say that as part of my day job I
am involved in a very similar search.  If/when I solve that problem
I may apply that knowledge to MPLS Linux as well..
