🛰️ BGP

• SR-Policy NLRI (SAFI 73) and Tunnel Encap decode, with an ExaBGP bridge
• IRR-based prefix filtering, with ASN fallback and a configurable PeeringDB URL
• The ATTR_TOMBSTONE mechanism (see the draft-mangin-idr-attr-tombstone-00 write-up from a few weeks back) now also covers ASN transcoding: a malformed AGGREGATOR hit while rewriting between 2-byte and 4-byte ASN encodings gets tombstoned in place instead of forwarding corrupt bytes downstream

🖥️ Web Workbench

The web UI is now the default operator surface (the old bottom CLI bar is gone):

• Live BGP summary and a streaming log view
• Real health status and system resource reporting
• Peer detail, navigation, and Add Peer form fixes

🧩 CLI

21 plugin commands renamed for consistency, with autocomplete driven straight from the command registry. A new ze format command formats config for offline pipelines.

📶 Class of Service

Dynamic per-subscriber CoS driven by RADIUS, including vendor-specific attribute extraction, plus VLAN 802.1p QoS maps on both the kernel and VPP paths.

💿 Installer

Ventoy compatibility for ISO installs, server-reachability diagnostics before accepting a PXE lease, and faster kernel builds (multi-threaded, cached).

🛠️ Under the hood

Ping now uses an internal ICMP engine instead of shelling out to the OS ping binary, and there's a live show debug RPC for inspecting daemon state.

📣 Presentation: LINX 126

Presented "From ExaBGP to a Network OS with AI" at LINX 126 this week, covering the move from a BGP daemon to a full network OS. Glad to have had the chance to bring that to the LINX community in person.
