v1.12.0

• New: add the --merge-file option to the ixf-member-export command, to include user-created content into the IX-F Member Export JSON file.

  For more details on how it works please check the documentation.

  See also GitHub issue #89.

• Improvement: in the ixf-member-export command, the value of IXP ID can now be set via the --ixp-id in addition to the existing --ixp_id option.

  In the future, the --ixp_id version of the option will be dropped. A warning message will be shown when the deprecated version of that command line argument is used.

• Improvement: ask for 16bit placeholder ASN in configure when the route-server is on a 32bit ASN.

  When the configure command is used to generate the policy for a route-server running on a 32bit ASN, a prompt asks the operator which 16bit placeholder ASN should be used to setup the BGP communities. So far, the fixed value 65534 was used.

  See also GitHub issue #88.

• Improvement (OpenBGPD): use as-set to configure the list of "never via route server" ASNs.

  This change reduces the size of the configuration and hopefully makes the filter processing faster.

  See also GitHub issue #90.

• Fix: when the route-server ASN was a 32bit value, the Euro-IX Large BGP Communities automatically configured via configure were using the 16bit placeholder ASN.

  When the configure command was used to build the genera.yml policy for route-servers running on 32bit ASNs, the Large BGP Communities used to map route reject causes to Euro-IX codes were using the 16bit placeholder ASN instead of the actual route-server's 32bit ASN.
