- The status page has a collapsible "Configuration" section showing the config file as read at startup, with its path. Served by the new GET /api/config; RouterInfo::with_config carries the text. - Removed the AS-path prepends field and the SwissIX prepend presets (42476:101..103) from the form to keep the exercise focused. The API still accepts `prepend`. - Docs follow: the handout loses its prepending exercise, the lab README its prepend row, and the BIRD config notes that the 42476 namespace is still admitted for hand-typed values.

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.

- ✅ 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
