OpenBGPD 8.2 released
2 October, 2023 by claudio@openbsd.org | openbsd
We have released OpenBGPD 8.2, which will be arriving in the OpenBGPD directory of your local OpenBSD mirror soon. This release includes the following changes to the previous release: * Update ASPA support to follow draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-verification-16 and draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-profile-16 by making the ASPA lookup tables AFI-agnostic. * Fix a fatal error in the Linux netlink parser which was triggered because of a mismatched netlink message size. * Rework UPDATE message generation to use the new ibuf API instead of the hand-rolled solution before. * Improve error message in bgpctl for features not supported by the portable version of OpenBGPD. * Adjusted example GRACEFUL_SHUTDOWN filter rule in the example config to only match on ebgp sessions. OpenBGPD-portable is known to compile and run on FreeBSD and the Linux distributions Alpine, Debian, Fedora, RHEL/CentOS 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.
