    At first I thought this was going to just be a go program handling BGP data. And then I saw they injected the routes into the local windows FIB. Somewhere a CCIE is crying silently, and doesn't know why.

    I get that it works, but something about this feels...deeply wrong :)

    Every day we stray further from God's light.

    BGP on desktop is the same as ipv6 for home in terms of usefulness and practicality.

    I wonder if Windows can take a full table without tipping over internally.
