protocol-participation

The component presents a coherent, high-privilege network management tool enabling live routing protocol participation with GRE-based transport. While not inherently malicious, its power to inject/withdraw routes and modify routing costs requires strict, auditable access controls, robust change-management gating, and minimized blast radius in production. The described guardrails and lab-mode toggling mitigate risk in controlled environments, but production deployment must ensure enforceable in-code authorization, rigorous logging, and strict separation of duties.
