57 * The Forwarding Plane Manager (FPM) is an optional component that
58 * may be used in scenarios where the router has a forwarding path
59 * that is distinct from the kernel, commonly a hardware-based fast
60 * path. It is responsible for programming forwarding information
61 * (such as routes and nexthops) in the fast path.
63 * In Quagga, the Routing Information Base is maintained in the
64 * 'zebra' infrastructure daemon. Routing protocols communicate their
65 * best routes to zebra, and zebra computes the best route across
66 * protocols for each prefix. This latter information comprises the
67 * bulk of the Forwarding Information Base.
69 * This header file defines a point-to-point interface using which
70 * zebra can update the FPM about changes in routes. The communication
71 * takes place over a stream socket. The FPM listens on a well-known
72 * TCP port, and zebra initiates the connection.
74 * All messages sent over the connection start with a short FPM
75 * header, fpm_msg_hdr_t. In the case of route add/delete messages,
76 * the header is followed by a netlink message. Zebra should send a
77 * complete copy of the forwarding table(s) to the FPM, including
78 * routes that it may have picked up from the kernel.
80 * The FPM interface uses replace semantics. That is, if a 'route add'
81 * message for a prefix is followed by another 'route add' message, the
82 * information in the second message is complete by itself, and replaces
83 * the information sent in the first message.
85 * If the connection to the FPM goes down for some reason, the client
86 * (zebra) should send the FPM a complete copy of the forwarding
87 * table(s) when it reconnects.
