OpenBGPD 7.5 has been released, which will be arriving in the OpenBGPD directory of your local OpenBSD mirror soon.
This release includes the following changes to the previous release:
Implement RFC 9234 - Route Leak Prevention and Detection Using Roles in UPDATE and OPEN Messages.
Full support for RFC 7911 - Advertisement of Multiple Paths in BGP.
Include bgplgd(8) - a fastcgi server providing a REST API of bgpctl. Built by default, but can be excluded with --disable-bgplgd.
Add FIB and TCP MD5 support for FreeBSD.
Disable Linux FIB support by default, add an --enable-netlink configure option to enable it for testing and development.
Improve bgpd FIB code, make it more portable and properly handle IPv6 scoped addresses.
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.
