PROFILE

Lou Berger

Worked on the opensourcerouting/frr repository to enhance packaging flexibility and network protocol reliability. Developed OS-aware packaging features using Shell and Python, introducing build-time options to include or exclude documentation and RPKI support, and streamlined shared library management with wildcard patterns. Updated Red Hat packaging documentation to support Rocky 8, improving cross-distro deployment. Additionally, contributed C and Python code to adapt the NHRP test suite for Linux kernel 4.18 compatibility and restored IPv4 interface handling by refining address prefix logic. These changes improved test coverage, reduced CI false negatives, and stabilized enterprise deployments by addressing configuration and compatibility issues.
