[AusNOG] Best Linux for....

[Nikolas Geyer]

Another vote for Bird purely because it supports Add Path while Quagga doesn't (the Cumulus fork supports Add Path Rx only). Not a requirement for everyone, but commonly used for BGP edge applications with route reflection.

Hi all,

Just looking for opinions on the best distributions for:

- BGP Edge (Quagga)

- NAT (1-1000 internal users)

- CGNAT (500-10000 users) - should probably be able to do v6 translations as well

- LNS - Any decent Linux LNS yet?

Thanks guys.
