ECMP/multipath support

[Andrew Lemin]

Wow, great news.
What has been the challenge with adding ECMP support in the RIP protocol?

I understand you are making the changes on the protocols seeing as the bird table already supports multipath routes.
Is there anything we could do to help to get the ECMP RIP working?

Thank you for your time and hard work.
Regards, Andy.

We already have BIRD multipath support for OSPF, static and Linux kernel protocols in our Git repository [*]. RIP will probably come soon, although it is a bit tricky.
