Welcome to the open-source implementation of SCION (Scalability, Control and Isolation On next-generation Networks), a future Internet architecture. SCION is the first clean-slate Internet architecture designed to provide route control, failure isolation, and explicit trust information for end-to-end communication. To find out more about the project, please visit our documentation site.

Join SCIONLab if you're interested in playing with SCION in an operational global test deployment of SCION.

This fork of scionproto/scion, specifically the branch scionlab, is the version of SCION running in SCIONLab. Our version moves in a roughly biannual release cycle behind the upstream master, which is an attempt to find a balance between the cutting edge and periods of protocol and API stability. We typically maintain a few SCIONLab specific quirks here. Occasionally, we include an experimental feature before it becomes available upstream.

As part of the SCIONLab project, we support pre-built binaries as Debian packages.

Please contribute directly upsteam at scionproto/scion when possible; have a look at the setup instructions and the contribution guide.
