For this, it uses the [NetFPGA +10G](http://netfpga.org/site/#/systems/3netfpga-10g/details/) platform, +which has Broadcom AEL2005 PHY 10G Ethernet devices. Raptor is +point-to-point and does not use addresses. It is available for Linux +only and support is minimal. If you are interested in trying it out, +please contact us via the ouroboros mailing list or the IRC channel. + +You can clone the [raptor repository](/cgit/raptor/): + +``` +$ git clone http://ouroboros.rocks/git/raptor +$ git clone https://ouroboros.rocks/git/raptor +$ git clone git://ouroboros.rocks/raptor +``` + +There are two directories. The *linux* directory contains the kernel +module, the *netfpga10g* directory contains the files necessary to build +the FPGA design. + +To build and install the kernel module: + +``` +$ make +$ sudo make install +``` + +You can now load/unload the raptor kernel module: + +``` +$ sudo modprobe raptor +$ sudo rmmod raptor +``` + +To uninstall the module: + +``` +$ sudo make uninstall +``` + +You will need to get some cores (such as PCIe and XAUI) from Xilinx in +order to build this project using the provided tcl script. Detailed +instructions on how to build the NetFPGA project under construction. + +Raptor is integrated in Ouroboros and the raptor IPCP will be built if +the kernel module is installed in the default location. + +Raptor was developed as part of the master thesis (in Dutch) +"Implementatie van de Recursive Internet Architecture op een FPGA +platform" by Alexander D'hoore.
