This comment completely misses the point. There is a distinction between "complete" and "dead", to whatever degree any software can be called "complete".
The Quagga source repo[1]'s certificate expired over 6 months ago. Looking at the Bugzilla[2] report (also with an expired certificate) there are 14 blockers, 49 critical and 69 issues that have not been resolved.
So no, I'd agree with the parent comment that using a project as seemingly dead as Quagga for something as critical as BGP routing is putting yourself on shaky ground at the very least.

- kortilla 7y agoYou missed the point. It’s a demo doing trivial bgp stuff that hasn’t changed for 15 years. It’s like someone doing a demo on some text processing where they use grep and the top comment is some jerk saying that map-reduce would be better because some new large systems use it and it’s being actively developed.
