WebalexEU

WebalexEU is an open-source publisher focused on bringing carrier-grade network tooling to the Windows platform; its sole public offering, WinBGP, presents a lightweight yet feature-rich BGP daemon that network engineers can run natively on Windows servers, desktops, or virtual machines. Positioned as “the BGP swiss army knife,” the utility speaks full IPv4/IPv6 unicast and multicast BGP, supports route-maps, prefix-lists, extended communities, and RPKI validation, while exposing a YAML-style configuration file and REST-like API that slide cleanly into DevOps pipelines. Typical use cases include turning a Windows hypervisor host into a resilient route-reflector for enterprise or lab topologies, announcing and withdrawing prefixes from automation scripts during failover events, redistributing static routes or VPN pools into upstream provider sessions, and giving Windows-based SD-WAN controllers a standards-based peering option without extra virtual appliances. Because the binary is self-contained and installs as a service, it also appeals to penetration testers who need a disposable BGP speaker for route-hijack demonstrations, and to cloud architects who want side-car routing on Windows containers or Kubernetes nodes. The codebase is maintained transparently on GitHub, accepts pull requests for new RFCs, and releases signed binaries for every tagged version. WebalexEU software is available for free on get.nero.com, where WinBGP can be fetched through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the newest build and allowing batch installation alongside other networking utilities.
