documentation on emptying bgp_community

2017-09-12 Thread Alexander Zubkov
Hello. I have found a couple of methods to make bgp_community empty: 1) bgp_community.empty 2) bgp_community = -empty- But neither of them are present in the documentation. Only example in bird.conf.example file. I think it will be good to have this documented.

2017-09-12 Thread Alexander Zubkov
Hello. I want to be able to reload bird's configuration so it will not change current protocol's state. For example if I run bird with some protocols and then disable one of them from the console and at finally I run "configure" of "configure soft" to reload a configuration (new filters for exampl

Hi BIRD does not handle well situations where there are overlapping IP ranges on interfaces. It just find a first iface that matches the next-hop. It is true that one would expect that in 'direct' mode, the iface is used also for the next hop, but even in that case BGP is two-level and BGP next h

Hi,  I figured out a problem with the BIRD routing daemon.  It is not possible to route BGP via IPIP tunnels. As you can see below  the packets will be routed through the wrong device. Normally it should  choose "ASIX" as right device, but it does not.  root@cr01:/etc/bird# ip -6 route | grep 2a0
