This is a simple program that plays the role of a Forwarding Plane Manager and prints out messages received from the RIB. It is useful for testing the quagga code that interacts with the FPM.

fpm-stub can be built as follows:

  $ make FRR_DIR=<location-of-frr-code>

The FRR_DIR variable is required because fpm_stub depends on the header file that defines the FPM interface (fpm/fpm.h).

To run the program, just invoke it as follows -- it will start listening for a connection from the RIB.

  $ ./fpm-stub
