Comment on Killing the ISP Appliance: An eBPF/XDP Approach to Distributed BNG

Comments

The code is mostly vibe coded and under the BSL. I think the interesting bit here is a single developer can write something like this with an agent. Does it make sense to open source such a thing or just each ISP write their own to their requirements?

I also don’t get the focus on handling DHCP renewals in the kernel fast path. With 2000 subscribers per OLT and say a 5 minute lease time that’s only a few renewals a second.

You might have many OLTs per rack and many racks per site.
