Tip
title(RARE-FreeRouter)-101 - [ #001 ] key take-away
  • FreeRouter is using UNIX socket in order to forward packet.

This is a key feature that will be leveraged to connect freeRouter control plane to any type of data-plane

  • In FreeRouter everything is in a VRF (so there is no global VRF)

This design choice has very positive consequences like: No VRF aware protocol,have multiple bgp processes (each bound to a different VRF) 

  • freeRouter is dual stack 

All the feature set is IPv4 and IPv6 compliant. So there is no compromised !
