I come back to you with this problem cause it has been bugging me for weeks now. please if anyone has any input, share :)
So the thing is that the updates i'm getting to my $livebgp neighbor seem to only to be originating from 2 of the almost 10 connected hosts in the group peers. (one of the 2 is actually my closest BGP router) i'm checking with bgpctl show and seeing updates coming to me from other connected peers, but my openbgpd only sends out ones from my closest AS and one more. How can i emulate an IXP route server functionality so that my $livebgp peer gets ALL updates from ALL the hosts in the group peers??? thank you very much!
