# Project Calico BGP Peering & WireGuard Mesh Encryption

Configures Project Calico CNI: establishing BGP peering with physical routers (BGPPeer), configuring IPAM IP pools (CIDR blocks), enabling WireGuard pod encryption, and enforcing global network policies.

## When to Invoke
Invoke this skill whenever you need to:
- configure calico bgp peer
- enable calico wireguard
- setup calico ippool

## Execution SOP & Rules
1. Apply BGPConfiguration and BGPPeer resources with peerIP and asNumber specifications.
2. Enable WireGuard encryption: calicoctl patch felixconfiguration default --type='merge' -p '{"spec":{"wireguardEnabled":true}}'.
3. Define custom IPPools with cidr and nodeSelector constraints.
4. Verify BGP session established state: calicoctl node status to ensure BGP peering is Established.

## Verification Checklist
- Run local linting, syntax validation, and type-checks before reporting completion.
- Ensure all created or modified files adhere to workspace boundaries and avoid uncommitted secrets.
- Verify tests or build commands exit cleanly with return code 0.
