Feature Request

Summary

Implement network configuration for proto: ospf for node types other than Router.

Motivation

Router types like vyatta / vyos work well for emulating simple routers / firewalls, but we have a need for more user-facing features on a router. This can be accomplished with a ubuntu box in place of the router. It would be a simple switch if ospf configuration could be accomplished by phenix on-the-fly.

Proposed Solution

• assume Virtual Machine image has frr (and any other needed package dependencies) installed
• edit startup app and linux_interfaces.tmpl to configure ospf on-the-fly.

Alternatives Considered

We tried leveraging VyOS directly, could not fit our needs.

Additional Context

I believe unsupported protos do not throw an error right now (i.e. using proto: ospf on a linux or windows Virtual Machine will just not work, with no error). Perhaps adding some errors or warning.
