ExaBGP Monitor with Socket.IO Server, Socket.IO Client and Quagga iBGP Peer

This repository contains three docker images:

i) An ExaBGP router with Socket.IO server embeded exposed on port 5000

ii) A python Socket.IO client that retrieves BGP update messages from the ExaBGP router in JSON format

iii) A Quagga BGP router

Run

To run a simple test case use docker-compose up command

Topology

Socket.IO client <-- <BGP UPDATES> --> Socket.IO server / ExaBGP Monitor <-- <iBGP SESSION> --> QUAGGA1 <-- <eBGP SESSION> --> QUAGGA2

Test behaviour

a) EXABGP creates an iBGP session with QUAGGA1
b) QUAGGA1 creates an eBGP session with QUAGGA2
c) Socket.IO client subscribes for 0.0.0.0/8 prefix to Socket.IO server
d) QUAGGA2 announces 2.0.0.0/8 and QUAGGA1 announces 1.0.0.0/8
e) EXABGP receives announcements and forwards them to Socket.IO client
