Of those who have used Quagga or Bird, or anything else, would either of them be appropriate and/or well suited for use as an iBGP blackhole route server? We currently do blackholes via manual config on one of our real routers but are wanting to add a software-based (on linux) system where we could script a way for some of our tech support folks to add blackhole routes at the direction of a network person where they can just enter a command and the IP address.
seems you want something like quagga on a secured host... that ought to be fine, you could even just make it an ebgp peer of 2-3 devices and use that with a route-map to reset the next-hop, there by not messing up your current nice ibgp mesh.
Thanks,
