Rayhaan JaufeerallyandClaude Fable 5.1 106edd1df0 slides: reveal.js deck template for the BGP lecture
Structured like Matt Godbolt's newer talks (hrt-theme.css in
what-happens-beneath-accu-2026): reveal.js with no stock theme but a custom
dark one, every slide on a rounded panel, IBM Plex Sans and Mono, monokai
code with glowing stepped lines, 16:9 with fade transitions, and the
content in one Markdown file per section.

Made our own: the palette is a handful of variables (with ?accent= presets
for comparing), and his ring-and-thread corner motif became a chain of
nodes and links, an AS path, which also opens the title slide. A wordmark
sits where his decks carry the employer logo.

Also: a small `bird` syntax highlighter for router config on slides, a
bytes component in the four groups of the /statusz bytes view, columns,
boxes, and a `bare` slide class. reveal.js 6 loads from a vendored copy
when slides/vendor-reveal.sh has been run (works offline, ignored by git)
and from the CDN otherwise. Section files carry a starter outline for the
lab that doubles as a tour of the slide types.

BGP

The bgp crate is an implementation of the Border Gateway Protocol, which is used to exchange routing and control plane information between Autonomous Systms.

The aim of this project is to provide a modern, high performance, secure and programatic and customizable software package that can be useful to network operators, researchers, and people interested in Internet.

Current status.

The project is currently being rewritten from scratch to be more modular and maintainable, as well as to fix deeper issues with the previous implementation.

⚠️ Warning: This is currently a work in progress and not ready for use.

🛣️ Roadmap to v1.0

We aim for the 1.0 release to be functional and stable to operate peering sessions, and to install routes in the Linux Kernel.

  • ☐ Implement basic parsers for the fundamental types required
    • ✅ Path Attributes from RFC4271
    • ✅ Open message
      • ✅ Capabilities from RFC4271
    • ✅ Update message
    • ☐ Notification message
  • ✅ Implement scaffolding required to start and configure a server
  • ✅ Implement connection logic to establish sessions with peers (passive and active)
  • ✅ Locally originated routes with communities, announced to all peers
  • ✅ HTTP API, live status page and Prometheus metrics
  • ☐ Implement an efficient data structure for storing prefixes (e.g. Poptrie)
  • ☐ Filtering for peer RIB in / out
  • ☐ Main / auxillary RIBs for exchanging routes between peers
