I am working on an personal experiment and was wondering what is the best
option for running BGP in a docker base container. I have seen a lot blogs
and docs referencing Quagga. I just want to make sure I am not over looking
any other options before I dive in. Any thoughts or suggestions?

If this is to run bgp to the ToR, this is a nice way do have redundant
paths to a server.

Exabgp is a nice tool for this, and a colleague of mine developed
'bagpipe' (https://github.com/Orange-OpenSource/bagpipe-bgp) for this,
now part of openstack
(https://github.com/openstack/networking-bagpipe) but still usable as
a standalone daemon.
