--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : bird2
Product : Fedora EPEL 7
Version : 2.0.9
Release : 1.el7
URL : https://bird.network.cz/
Summary : BIRD Internet Routing Daemon
Description :
BIRD is a dynamic IP routing daemon supporting both, IPv4 and IPv6, Border
Gateway Protocol (BGPv4), Routing Information Protocol (RIPv2, RIPng), Open
Shortest Path First protocol (OSPFv2, OSPFv3), Babel Routing Protocol (Babel),
Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD), IPv6 router advertisements, static
routes, inter-table protocol, command-line interface allowing on-line control
and inspection of the status of the daemon, soft reconfiguration as well as a
powerful language for route filtering.

Update Information:
# BIRD 2.0.9 (2022-02-09) ## Changes * BGP: Flowspec validation procedure
* Babel: MAC authentication support * Routing table configuration blocks *
Optional prefix trie in routing table for faster LPM/interval queries * CLI:
New `show route in <prefix>` command * Filter: Faster (16-way) prefix sets *
Filter: MPLS label route attribute * Filter: Operators to pick community
components * Filter: Operators to find minimum and maximum element of lists
* BGP: New `free bind` option * BGP: Log route updates that were changed to
withdraws * BGP: Improved `invalid next hop` error reporting * OSPF: Allow
ifaces with host address as unnumbered PtP or PtMP ifaces * OSPF: All packets
on PtP networks should be sent to AllSPFRouters address * Scripts for apkg-
powered upstream packaging for deb and rpm * Support for Blake2s and Blake2b
hash functions * Security keys / passwords can be entered in hexadecimal
digits * Memory statistics split into Effective and Overhead * Linux: New
option `netlink rx buffer` to specify netlink socket buffer size * BSD: Assume
onlink flag on ifaces with only host addresses * Many bugfixes ## Notes *
For OSPF on PtP network, BIRD now sends all packets to multicast AllSPFRouters
address (as required in RFC 2328 8.1). This likely breaks setups with multiple
neighbors on a network configured as PtP, which worked in previous versions.
Such links should be configured as PtMP. * Since Linux 5.3, netlink socket can
be flooded by route cache entries during route table scan. This version
mitigates that issue by using strict netlink filtering.
