bgp4j's Introduction

This the BGP4J project, an implementation of the BGP4 protocol in Java. 

Rationale:
----------
This projected was initiated by the need to manipulate routing tables in a fairly exotic use case. 

The first attempt was to talk to a specific routing daemon (quagga) and to reimplement the internal protocol in Java. This protocol is not
well-documented and it turned out that there was the need to reverse-engineer the quagga code. 
The reverse engineering could not be done in a feasible timeframe and an alternative approach was chosen.

BGP4 protocol support:
----------------------
The BGP4j project tries to implement the following standards or recommendations defined in:
- RFC 1997: BGP Communities attribute
- RFC 2858: Multiprotocol extensions for BGP-4
- RFC 2918: Route refreshment capability for BGP-4
- RFC 3065: Autonomous System Confederations for BGP
- RFC 3392: Capability advertisement in BGP-4
- RFC 4271: Border Gateway Protocol 4
- RFC 4893: BGP support for four-octet AS Numbers
- RFC 5668: 4-Octet AS Specific BGP Extended Community
