Please provide more details on the Routing Protocol Overview topic.

A non-exhaustive list of improvements

  1. My first suggestion/ask is that MikroTik team add (when is possible) the RFCs that are covered by each feature on the Grid of functions.
  2. Separate on a different topic (and update regularly) the BGP Performance part.
  3. Only for UX and esthetic purposes, I suggest some kind of “freeze panes” on the grid of features. Freezing versions line and Feature column.
  4. Add a bit of not-in-progress but in backlog/roadmap features.
    1. Examples:
      1. BGP Labeled Unicast (BGP-LU)
      2. BGP Link State (BGP-LS)
      3. BGP RT Constrained Route Distribution (BGP-RTFILTER)
      4. Segment Routing, SR-MPLS or SRv6, and Flex-algo.
      5. BGP Dynamic Peering
      6. BGP over unnumbered links.
      7. BGP with link-local addresses.
      8. BMP - BGP Monitoring Protocol
  5. Split a bit more the details of the macro features
    1. Examples
      1. BGP Address-Families, what are actually supported?
      2. EVPN
        1. What types of routes are supported?
        2. ARP and Broadcast Suppression?
        3. All-Active multi-homing? (Ex.: Dual-PE in MC-LAG)
      3. L3VPN
        1. VPNv4, VPNV6, 6PE, 6VPE, per-vrf-label.
        2. Over LDPv4, Over LDPv6.
      4. FlowSpec
        1. Route-Reflecting Flowspec Rules
        2. Filtering Flowspec Rules by specific address-family atributes
        3. Applying Flowspec Rules in Firewall Rules, Firewall RAW, Switchchip Rules.

Look, I agree, but I think it's a waste of time to write something on the forum directed to the MikroTik staff,
it should be written to support.

If Māris B. @MarisB doesn't read here, it's all useless...
