Worked on the LabNConsulting/frr repository to address a crash in pimd related to MSDP Source-Active (SA) message handling when peers are configured in a mesh-group. Used C and Python to implement a fix ensuring the forwarding logic correctly respects peer group membership, thereby improving the stability and reliability of multicast state advertisement forwarding. Developed and integrated a topotest to validate MSDP SA forwarding between a mesh-group peer and two additional peers, confirming correct bidirectional state propagation. This work demonstrated strong debugging skills, protocol development expertise, and a focus on robust network programming and automated testing within complex networking environments.
February 2026 (LabNConsulting/frr): Fixed a crash in pimd related to MSDP SA handling when peers are in a mesh-group; added a topotest to validate MSDP SA forwarding between a mesh-group peer and two peers, ensuring multicast state advertisements are correctly forwarded in both directions. This work improves stability, reliability, and correctness of MSDP in mesh-group deployments; demonstrating strong debugging, test automation, and cross-peer state management.
