  • docs(wiki): sync wiki with 15f9b98ae..acbef856e (93 commits) No new pages. Updated 26 existing pages covering: the plugin peer-up barrier and exclusive role claims, progress-bounded plugin startup, the route-server replay/live partition at a peer-up cut, one End-of-RIB per family per session, forward refusal on an unresolvable source, IRR filtering becoming opt-in, same-subnet interface renumbering, all- participant config reload and nested config roots, tc noqueue snapshot and per-protocol filter priorities, DDoS fail-closed on an unresolved victim, OSPF interface-open resilience and the OSPFv3 DAD source, L2TP control frames on the adopted socket, runtime state persistence, the appliance e2fsprogs resolution, and off-Linux unit tests. Corrects two false claims found while syncing: - rfc-implementation.md said Ze "deviates from RFCs in a small number of cases, and every deviation is documented in exabgp-differences.md or in the relevant in-tree architecture doc". Neither half held. There are 539 {gap:} annotations across 84 of the 166 enrolled RFCs, and that is where deviations live, on the specific requirement line with the producing file:line. Replaced with the real shape plus three worked RFC 4271 examples. - The attribute-ordering deviation it cited no longer exists: all three builders keep type-code order since ea9c83ca5. Stale counts fixed: 86 registered plugins is now 87.

  • docs(wiki): sync wiki with 44673dfea..15f9b98ae (211 commits) Updated 29 existing pages. No new pages. Breaking CLI change: a bare `ze <config-file>` no longer starts the daemon. Position 1 accepted a command OR a free-form path, so a config named like a command was dispatched as that command and never loaded. Launch is now `ze start <config-file>`, with `-` kept as the stdin sentinel. Corrected in quick-start, starting-and-stopping (including its systemd unit), command-reference, debugging, scenarios, chaos-tested-peering and exabgp-migration-walkthrough. command-reference also gains a `ze start` section with its own flags. Also flipped: `ze config set`, `activate` and `deactivate` no longer notify a running daemon by default. `--reload` opts in and `--no-reload` is gone. Feature gates grew from 12 to 36 and now include the BGP engine itself, the BNG, IPsec, VPP and every routing protocol. building.md gets the full grouped list, the generated `go install` line, and the dependency rules that make it usable: ze_bmp needs ze_bgp, and bfd/api stays always-on so a BFD-less build still runs BGP and OSPF unchanged. status, feature-inventory, comparison and glossary all carried the stale twelve-tag list. RFC gate: 138 enrolled RFCs over 1466 gated requirements became 166 documents over 2720, none outstanding. Documented the four regression ratchets and the extraction-completeness pass, including why deleting a requirement is blocked: it would otherwise be the cheapest route from red to green, cheaper than declaring a gap, which would pressure contributors to hide obligations. Protocol correctness, documented where an operator would look for it: - route-injection: an operator-supplied as-path gets the local AS prepended for a plain eBGP peer (RFC 4271 5.1.2). Verbatim transparency is scoped to RS clients, so the two never share a built UPDATE. - peers: RFC 6286 identifier validation on both receive rails, AS-wide uniqueness, and the allow-shared-router-id opt-out for anycast speakers. - graceful-restart: RFC 9494 4.6 depreference on stale readvertisement is driven by stale level rather than restart state, so mark-stale routes are covered too. - bgp-nlri-ls: an unknown NLRI type is skipped, not fatal to every NLRI after it, per RFC 9552 5.1. - bgp-nlri-evpn: Ze is a control-plane relay and not a PE; malformed IP Address Length is rejected. - bgp-rib: multipath ECMP group installation and the ecmp-paths field. Security and robustness: authorization fails closed on an unresolved profile, with the reserved-namespace break-glass path and the AAA ingress filtering that stops an untrusted RADIUS or TACACS+ server naming it. EAP-TLS refuses a responder that has no trust anchor to validate against. static isolates one unprogrammable route instead of failing the whole section, withdraws the orphaned old route on a skipped replacement, and surfaces both through skip-reason and a doctor check. Operator traps now named: the pinned appliance kernel ships no L2TP and Ze's fail-closed probe crash-loops the daemon on it with nothing useful on serial; policy routing needs a filter chain because nftables rejects a route chain on prerouting, which took the plugin down at startup; nft set-element timeouts silently never expired until the set-level flag was set. ci.md claimed the CI configuration was not in the repository. It is: validation moved off Codeberg's shared Woodpecker runners onto GitHub Actions, six workflows, with the stage list single-sourced in stagesForMode so a gate absent from that function runs nowhere. testing.md gains the test-health dashboard (is our testing correct, not is it large), the two sensitivity ratchets, the accept-only .ci lint and its shrink-only baseline, and the needs-linux and netns-link directives.

  • docs(wiki): sync wiki with 64d4a22..260623a (6 commits) Mirror the docs/ code-accuracy refresh into the wiki and verify every changed claim against bin/ze --plugins, the YANG schema, and the Makefile. Updated 18 pages covering: - Reframed "Ze is not a router" / "not a routing suite" (why-ze, what-is-ze): Ze now has FIB pipeline, static/connected/kernel redistribution, policy routing, MPLS FIB, BFD, LDP, RSVP-TE, IPsec/IKE, L2TP, PPPoE in tree. - Removed stale "missing feature" rows now shipped (BMP, BFD, AIGP, private-AS removal, FIB, gRPC) and reworded confederation to match the code. - Corrected plugin registration names to match the registry: role -> bgp-role, filter-community -> bgp-filter-community, sysrib -> rib (catalogue contexts), iface -> interface (catalogue), rsvpte -> rsvp-te, flowexport -> flow-export, static-routes -> static, traffic-control -> traffic. - Plugin count corrected to 65 (verified via bin/ze --plugins). - Filter block: redistribution { } -> filter { } in architecture.md. - Added the show host platform command (cli, command-reference, host-inventory). - Fixed a false "Ze does not do AS-path regex" claim (bgp-filter-aspath exists). - Regenerated llms-full.txt; bumped .source-commit to 260623a.

  • wiki: sync with 538 commits of April development The wiki was pinned to 7fcc808 (2026-04-11) while the codebase added BFD, BMP, L2TP/PPP, firewall, traffic control, VPP integration, WireGuard, tunnel interfaces, TACACS+, NTP, sysctl, route reflector, route filters, gRPC API, and many more features across 538 commits. Updated 13 existing pages to fix factually wrong claims (BFD/BMP "not implemented", 32 plugin count, tunnels "not implemented") and reflect the current feature set. Created 9 new pages for the major new subsystems. Bumped .source-commit to current HEAD. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

  • Refresh comparison and feature inventory for new API and multipath comparison.md: five surfaces line now calls out REST + gRPC sharing one engine. Multipath bullet updated from "partial" to reflect the new bgp/multipath block (maximum-paths, relax-as-path). feature-inventory.md: split REST API row into REST API (dedicated server on 8081, /api/v1/*, Swagger UI, Bearer auth) and gRPC API (50051, ze.api.v1 services, reflection, TLS). The old claim about REST being content-negotiated on the same server as the web UI described the previous design. Source commit: 7fcc8083 (main repo).
