ajones17/frr-vpp repository overview

FRR on Linux assumes the Linux Kernel data-plane, here we investigate using the VPP data-plane instead. FRR is installed from master using ajones17/frr and VPP is built and installed (packages in /pkgs/apk again) on top of the FRR.

This is very much experimental, in particular, there is a quite a bit of manual intervention required to get this to actually work. None of the VPP patches required for alpine linux integration have been submitted upstream yet as I'm still trying to figure out how/if this thing will work...

To use:

docker run -d --rm --name frr ajones17/frr-vpp:latest docker exec -it frr /bin/sh

Builds are numbered, so if a recent change causes a problem, you can go back a few commits...
