Hello there,

I get the error message:

"<ERR> bfd1: Socket error: Destination address required"

(ubuntu 22.04, bird via ppa 2.15.1) running BFD and MP-BGP via IPv6 over wireguard interfaces. Not all BGP neighbors are reachable.

Relevant (I hope) config:

log "/var/log/bird/bird.log" all;

protocol device {
}

protocol bfd {
  accept ipv6 direct;
  interface "wg_blue*";
  interface "wg_green" {
    multiplier 3;
    interval 500 ms;
  };
  neighbor 2001:db8:f000::2 dev "wg_green" local 2001:db8:f000::1;
neighbor 2001:db8:f000:ffff::2 dev "wg_blue2" local 2001:db8:f000:ffff::1; neighbor 2001:db8:f000:fffc::5 dev "wg_blue1" local 2001:db8:f000:fffc::1; neighbor 2001:db8:f000:fffc::4 dev "wg_blue1" local 2001:db8:f000:fffc::1; neighbor 2001:db8:f000:fffc::3 dev "wg_blue1" local 2001:db8:f000:fffc::1; neighbor 2001:db8:f000:fffc::2 dev "wg_blue1" local 2001:db8:f000:fffc::1;
}


protocol bgp EXAMPLE {
  local as 65001;
  neighbor 2001:db8:f000::2 as 65044;
  direct;
  med metric yes;
  ipv4 {
    ...
  };
  ipv6 {
    ...
  };
  bfd on;
}


If I remove the BFD config for the non-established BGP neighbors, the error message disappears (although there are still non-established BFD sessions for established BGP neighbors (BFD not yet confed on the other end)).

At first I did not create neighbor statements for BFD, then I added "dev" and "local" options - no improvement.

No revelations with "debug protocols all".

Any ideas? Thanks a lot!

Best,

fran
