Welcome to XORP

XORP is the eXtensible Open Router Platform.

XORP is the industry's only extensible open source routing platform. It is in broad use worldwide, with thousands of downloads by companies and educational institutions and an active international developer community. Designed for extensibility from the start, XORP provides a fully featured platform that implements IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols and a unified platform to configure them. It is the only open source platform to offer integrated multicast capability. XORP's modular architecture allows rapid introduction of new protocols, features and functionality, including support for custom hardware and software forwarding.

XORP is available for free download under a BSD-style license.

The core team is based at the International Computer Science Institute in Berkeley, California.

Latest Release: 1.4

This release is available for download as a Live CD or as source code. See the release notes for information about changes between releases.
