GNU Zebra is free software that manages TCP/IP based routing protocols. It takes a multi-server and multi-thread approach to resolve the current complexity of Internet routing. GNU Zebra supports BGP4, BGP4+, OSPFv2, OSPFv3, RIPv1, RIPv2, and RIPng. GNU Zebra also supports Route Server and a Route Reflector. It provides full routing power under a new architecture. GNU Zebra is unique in design in that it has a process for each protocol.
