Show HN: We Implemented the IPv8 Internet-Draft in the Linux Kernel, Musl Libc, and BGP
Summary
The article documents an audacious effort to implement IPv8, a proposed new Internet protocol, across the Linux kernel, Musl libc, IP routing tools, FRRouting, and a Go-based Zone Server. It outlines a complete stack from kernel to user space, lab results in a 4-AS testbed, and a discussion of significant real-world challenges and economic implications. It also points to a full whitepaper and the IETF draft for further details.
