## Overview
FRRouting is a routing software package that provides TCP/IP based routing services with routing protocols support such as BGP, RIP, OSPF, IS-IS and more. FRR also supports special BGP Route Reflector and Route Server behavior. In addition to traditional IPv4 routing protocols, FRR also supports IPv6 routing protocols. With an SNMP daemon that supports the AgentX protocol, FRR provides routing protocol MIB read-only access (SNMP Support).

## Overview
The Protean Protocol Prototyping Library (ProtoLib) is a cross-platform library that allows applications to be built while supporting a variety of platforms including Linux, Windows, WinCE/PocketPC, MacOS, FreeBSD, Solaris, etc as well as the simulation environments of NS2 and Opnet. The goal of the Protolib is to provide a set of simple, cross-platform C++ classes that allow development of network protocols and applications that can run on different platforms and in network simulation environments. While Protolib provides an overall framework for developing working protocol implementations, applications, and simulation modules, the individual classes are designed for use as stand-alone components when possible. Although Protolib is principally for research purposes, the code has been constructed to provide robust, efficient performance and adaptability to real applications. In some cases, the code consists of data structures, etc useful in protocol implementations and, in other cases, provides common, cross-platform interfaces to system services and functions (e.g., sockets, timers, routing tables, etc).

# Quagga Routing Suite

## Overview
Quagga is a routing software suite, providing implementations of OSPFv2, OSPFv3, RIP v1 and v2, RIPng and BGP-4 for Unix platforms, particularly FreeBSD, Linux, Solaris and NetBSD. Quagga is a fork of GNU Zebra which was developed by Kunihiro Ishiguro.
The Quagga architecture consists of a core daemon, zebra, which acts as an abstraction layer to the underlying Unix kernel and presents the Zserv API over a Unix or TCP stream to Quagga clients. It is these Zserv clients which typically implement a routing protocol and communicate routing updates to the zebra daemon.

Strong points of the CARP protocol are: very low overhead, cryptographically signed messages, interoperability between different operating systems and no need for any dedicated extra network link between redundant hosts.

# XORP routing suite

## Overview
XORP is an open networking platform that supports OSPF, RIP, BGP, OLSR, VRRP, PIM, IGMP (Multicast) and other routing protocols. Most protocols support IPv4 and IPv6 where applicable. It is known to work on various Linux distributions and flavors of BSD.

protocols. Most protocols support IPv4 and IPv6 where applicable. It is known to work on various Linux distributions and
flavors of BSD.
XORP started life as a project at the ICSI Center for Open Networking (ICON) at the International Computer Science Institute in Berkeley, California, USA, and spent some time with the team at XORP, Inc. It is now maintained and improved on a volunteer basis by a core of long-term XORP developers and some newer contributors.

XORP's primary goal is to be an open platform for networking protocol implementations and an alternative to proprietary
and closed networking products in the marketplace today. It is the only open source platform to offer integrated
multicast capability.
XORP design philosophy is:
* modularity
* extensibility
* performance
* robustness
This is achieved by carefully separating functionalities into independent modules, and by providing an API for each module.
XORP divides into two subsystems. The higher-level ("user-level") subsystem consists of the routing protocols. The lower-level ("kernel") manages the forwarding path, and provides APIs for the higher-level to access.

lower-level ("kernel") manages the forwarding path, and provides APIs for the higher-level to access.
The lower-level subsystem can use traditional UNIX kernel forwarding, or Click modular router. The modularity and independency of the lower-level from the user-level subsystem allows for its easily replacement with other solutions including high-end hardware-based forwarding engines.
