We’re pretty happy with TNSR, it routes 100G and handles BGP/WireGuard without sweating for us at the edge. It’s a bit 
pricey for a license compared to DIY, but it includes competent email support at the base level. Just make sure you get 
their OK before you start buying hardware, there are certain combinations of CPU + PCI cards that can have trouble with 
DPDK (mostly on the AMD side from what I hear, but that could be outdated information).

Hello,

Is anyone using a routing solution based on DPDK and VPP? I'd like to use
commodity server/appliance hardware to build a router capable of 10g+
bandwidth and near maximum pps routing.

Looking to have:
Bird / FRR (BGP and BFD)
LLDP
VPN (IPSec or Wireguard)
VRRP

Thanks.
