-Description: FRRouting suite of internet protocols (BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, ...)
- FRRouting implements the routing protocols commonly used in the
- internet and private networks to exchange information between routers.
- Both IP and IPv6 are supported, as are BGP, OSPFv2, OSPFv3, IS-IS, BABEL,
- EIGRP, RIP, RIPng, LDP, BFD, PIM, VRRP, PBR, and NHRP.
+Description: FRRouting Internet routing protocol suite
+ FRRouting (FRR) is a Internet routing protocol suite implementing BGP, OSPF,
+ RIP, IS-IS, PIM, LDP, BFD, Babel, PBR, OpenFabric, VRRP, EIGRP and NHRP.
  .
- These protocols are used to turn your system into a dynamic router,
- exchanging information about available connections with other routers
- in a standards-compliant way.  The actual packet forwarding
- functionality is provided by the OS kernel.
- .
- FRRouting is a fork of Quagga with an open community model. The main
- git lives on https://github.com/frrouting/frr.git and the project name
- is commonly abbreviated as "FRR."
+ FRR's integration in Linux IP networking stacks makes it a general purpose
+ routing stack for a wide variety of use cases including connecting
+ hosts/VMs/containers to the network, advertising network services, LAN
+ switching and routing, Internet access routers, and Internet peering.
