RouterOS is an existing product by MikroTik.


Mate Csaba's message had nothing to do with MikroTik RouterOS (from Latvia,
which doesn't include IS-IS support). And Mikrotik RouterOS isn't free. ;-)

Why was this response about RouterOS?  (Am I missing something?)

The posted presentations/slides touch upon the feature set of FreeRtr
(which is similiar to MT RouterOS, but which many production-ready Network
OSes have).

hi,
pleased to announce a stable release of freerouter.


Neat.


this is a routing daemon that does packet handling itself
so it can do bridging, routing ipv4/ipv6 unicast/multicast,
mpls, vpls, evpn, mpls te, mldp, segment routing, and so on...
speaks a lot of routing protocols like rip, ospf, isis, eigrp, bgp,
babel...
does a lot of tunneling like gre, ipip, ipsec, l2tp, geneve, vxlan,
nvgre...
have a lot of built in servers like dns, http(s), smtp, pop3, telnet,
tacacs, radius, ssh...
it can start external images which could be connected, so various lab
topolgies can be easily created.
our nren uses if as primary fullbgp rr for more than a year for about
hundred routers.
here is the homepage: http://freerouter.nop.hu/
feel free to try it out and send suggestions/bug reports...:)
thanks in advance,
csaba mate
