let's 192.168.1.1 is my router Wan IP. One single physical router running bird and bird6.
Solution 1 : bird router id = 192.168.1.1 bird6 router id = 192.168.1.1 Solution 2 : bird router id = 192.168.1.1 bird6 router id = 127.0.0.1 Is that what you're advising ? What are the benefits of using IPv4 loopback as bird6 router id ??! :-) On Mar 19, 2015 11:13 AM, "Job Snijders" <j...@instituut.net> wrote: > On Thu, Mar 19, 2015 at 11:08:06AM +0100, Ondrej Zajicek wrote: > > On Thu, Mar 19, 2015 at 09:35:42AM +0100, olivier a wrote: > > > Is it good practice to use same router id for bird and bird6 ? > > > > > > I'm wondering if there are some drawbacks or pitfalls ? > > > > I see no reason why not to use the same router id. > > I second that.
