Lots of replies saying which of BIRD/exabgp/frr/quagga/openbgpd folks prefer, but they're all pretty good. Honestly for such a project they're all just as great, it comes down mostly to what you're used to config-wise. Used to big metal router configuration? You might find BIRD foreign. Used to more functional code stuff? BIRD is pretty great. Others I have less experience with.

IS-IS in Quagga and FRR are not yet ready for business, is what I would caution.

I don't know if the other options support it or not.
