xBGP: When You Can't Wait for the IETF and Vendors

Proceedings of the 19th ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Networks (HotNets '20) · 2020

Abstract

Thanks to the standardization of routing protocols such as BGP, OSPF or IS-IS, Internet Service Providers (ISP) and enterprise networks can deploy routers from various vendors. This prevents them from vendor-lockin problems. Unfortunately, this also slows innovation since any new feature must be standardized and implemented by all vendors before being deployed.
