Learn about vigilant mode.

Packeteer v0.5.0 is hardening and polish on the v0.4 matrix (#49–#53). Field feedback from real observe-mode deployments (#54) stays open and is not part of this tag.

Highlights

  • UI/UX polish (#49): dashboard mode banner, overview tiles, setup checklist, empty and error states. mode defaults to observe when the key is omitted.
  • Install and router guides (#50): single-container quickstart, observe → suggest → inject walkthrough, troubleshooting, and MikroTik, FRR, Junos, and Cisco guides. Quickstart, troubleshooting, and the simulated-edge walkthrough run in CI.
  • Load and soak budgets (#51): full-table synthetic RIB, high flow rate, published memory and CPU budgets, and a flow-ingest fix when that window is full.
  • MikroTik CHR in QEMU (#52): RouterOS iBGP lab on GitHub runners. Community + NO_EXPORT, no export to eBGP, and withdraw on SIGTERM, the hold timer, and SIGKILL.
  • Router interop matrix (#53): FRR, BIRD 2/3, GoBGP, and CHR against iBGP, add-path, and BMP where the daemon supports it. Scheduled CI.

Safety (unchanged)

  • Default mode stays observe. Inject still requires mode: inject, an allowlist, the configured community + NO_EXPORT, the max_improvements cap, and hold time/thresholds.
  • Packeteer never announces a prefix that is not in the learned RIB view.
  • Packeteer-originated routes are withdrawn on shutdown, SIGTERM, probe-source loss, stale data, or RIB session loss. No graceful restart.
  • BGP behavior in this release is lab-proven only (simulated routers in CI, documentation prefixes and private ASNs), not on a public edge.
