An router-id is "just" an arbitrary number, where the format is equal to how an
IPv4 address looks. Even for your IPv6 bird instance.
The router-id can be any random address. (Usually equal to your router's mgmt
ipv4 address or another ipv4 address on your routers loopback interface.)
router-id:
(25[0-5]|2[0-4][\d]|[1-2]?[\d]{1,2})\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][\d]|[1-2]?[\d]{1,2})\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][\d]|[1-2]?[\d]{1,2})\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][\d]|[1-2]?[\d]{1,2})
