Rewriting all FRR processes allow for reloading and to XML/Python style
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Currently most FRR processes are following the old bash/perl guidelines and needs to be rewritten to XML/Python.

One of the biggest issues with the current implementation is that each process is configured separately with vtysh and the configuration is not saved to frr.conf.
This means that then a FRR process crashes the configuration is not saved and on restart it is not in sync with the configuration inside vyos.
In the current implementation i cant se a good way of fixing this issue.

During this work configuration for each FRR process needs to be moved into their respective protocol sub-config modes (eg. move ospf interface config from interface X ip ospf into protocols ospf interface X

An alternative is to make vyos-1x generate the process config for each frr process and merge each process config into frr.conf.
for this Danos could be used as an inspiration: https://github.com/danos/vyatta-protocols-frr/tree/master/scripts/frr

As for now there are no decision on what path to take on this restructuring.

This ticket is supposed to be used as a top level for all tickets related to FRR rewriting and bugs related to these.
