tbh it was 2 days 4 me to dynamically enable/disable ipv4 fulltable

https://groups.io/g/freertr/message/1376

https://groups.io/g/freertr/message/1319

and the line encoding of these newer flowspec afis are almost the same / extensions to the predecessors,

(i mean most of rtr/rtrbgpflowspec* are reuseable, refactorable....)

so imho having all these is just another weekend project here while keeping backwards compatibility with v1....
Maybe, we wait for this until there is something out there to interop with.

Maybe, on the long-term, we can discuss this with Frederic.
He has contact information with the developer of exabgp.

Best Regards
David

as this is a new afi finally, i personally consider it flowspec v3 as user interface
(be it vpn or internet) is layer3, a /24 or a /30 peering interface...

brifly reading the first some versions when i noticed this, it's more promising than flowspec v2 and v1...

so once this or v2 gets the number and a vendor comes up with some code, imho rare/freertr will have the

config knob to apply this to any interface basically.... once i route-target import the policy-map,

then i can apply that policy-map even to the loopback0 dont i? :)))))))))))))))))))))))
This sounds promising.

Unfortunately, until then, we have to keep with FlowSpec v1.

Best Regards
David

hmm and well, after some rest, if not flowspec v2 as suggested b4, flowspec for layer2 vpns like

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-idr-flowspec-l2vpn/

should also happen, etc.. this seems a more active draft and a different bgp safi finally... :)
This is a good point.

I have no experience with FlowSpec v2.
I am not sure whether exabgp has support for it yet.

Let's see how we can progress regarding this in future...
