Hello,

For VXLAN/EVPN COMWARE - LINUX interactions we are using FRRouting for a while FRRouting interact with linux kernel networking stack with zebra component and netlink interface Now I m looking for more packet processing performance so i decide to evaluate userspace network stack I m searching a BGP agent that talk to userspace network stack like VPP, Snabby or ovs-dpdk I found some candidates like gobgp, bagpipe, yabgp and exabgp exabgp architecture catches my attention because it can talk to a userspace program that act as interface between userspace network stack and BGP world

I download latest git version and look at exabgp help output, man pages and config examples Nothing about EVPN config or exabgpcli command

have you some examples or something that can help me ?

thank you

Hello Maxime,

I should be honest: ExaBGP documentation is very much "Read the code" ATM and it did not change for years ...

I did not write the EVPN code but if you have any particular question, I will try to help.
