As part of this PR, we got the CLI command:
set protocols bgp address-family ipv4-flowspec local-install
Which translates into this FRR config:
router bgp 65001 address-family ipv4 flowspec local-install eth0 exit-address-family exit
This should use pbrd to install IP rules, iptables entries, and ipset entries. But:
- pbrd is not running in VyOS
- iptables compatibility exists, but it’s unclear how well it integrates with everything else
- ipset is completely missing
In practice, FlowSpec prefixes received from peers are inactive and not installed anywhere.
We need to make it work or remove from CLI.
