Hi all,
What I am trying to achieve is to connect to remote peers using information
found in fib1 routing table setup in freebsd and export / import routing
information in this table using BGP. The issue I have right now is that this
configuratin doesn't work. It can't connect to the remote A.B.C.0 ip and I get
such errors in logs:
```
2023-06-06 02:05:58.571 <TRACE> enkiv4: A.B.C.D/24: ignored
2023-06-06 02:05:58.571 <TRACE> enkiv4: A.B.C.D/32: [alien] created
2023-06-06 02:05:58.571 <TRACE> enkiv4.ipv4 > added [best] A.B.C.D/32 0L 4G
unicast
2023-06-06 02:05:58.571 <TRACE> enkiv4.ipv4 < rejected by protocol A.B.C.D/32
0L 4G unicast
```
Is this pattern expected to work? I am wondering if it's not an issue in
Freebsd 13.2p0 version. I tried different combination these days without
success. Any help would be much appreciated :)
The connection used for bgp arrived on a vlan 20 on nic2 which I setup on fib1,
while the management interface is on another nic (bge0) and get its IP using
DHCP:
```
bge0 ---> fib 0 (used for management) DHCP
vlan20 -> fib 1 (connect to remote BGP peer) , static /31 IPV4
```
Here is a snippet of network setup:
```
# ifconfig bge0
bge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
options=c019b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4,VLAN_HWTSO,LINKSTATE>

Routing tables
Internet:
Destination Gateway Flags Netif Expire
A.B.C.0/31 link#11 U vlan2021
A.B.C.1 link#11 UHS lo0
127.0.0.1 link#7 UHS lo0
```
A minimal setup (edited for anonymization) in Bird is the following
```
router id A.B.C.1;
ipv4 table tabv4 sorted;
protocol kernel enkiv4 {
learn;
kernel table 1;
ipv4 {
table tabv4;
import all;
export all;
};
}
protocol bgp transit_ipv4_1 {
local A.B.C.1 as XXXX;
neighbor A.B.C.0 as XXXX;
default bgp_med 0;
default bgp_local_pref 50;
password "somepass";
ipv4 {
table tabv4;
import keep filtered;
import filter ebgp_import;
export filter ebgp_export;
next hop self;
};
};
```
routes that will be adverised are setup as blackhole routes directly in
FreeBSD. Should I setup them using the static protocol?
