Hello, <br><br> Can someone pls. provide some insight into this? Am a first-time user of BIRD and OSPF. <br><br>I have two machines (bird0 and bird1) running bird with a OSFP router
for the same area configured and both using a non default routing table
(vr1) pointing to kernel routing table 1.
<br>
<br>
One of the birds config files (on bird0) also has a large number of
static routes configured, also for vr1. There are 512k static routes
with contain more than 100k unique prefixes. The idea is that the other
birds (bird0) OSFP will get a dump of these routes.
<br>
<br>
- starting up bird0 and after a while:
<br>
bird0: birdc show route table vr1 | wc -l --> 116977
<br>
bird0: ip route show table 1 | wc -l --> 116973
<br>
<br>
- then starting up bird1 and after a while:
<br>
bird1: birdc show route table vr1 | wc -l --> 116977
<br>
bird1: ip route show table 1 | wc -l --> 116974
<br>
<br>
I see the "bird: OSPF: Socket error: No buffer space available" error
on bird1 console, BUT all routes are propagated so there does not seem
to be an issue handling this many routes. <br><br>So is this some type of transient condition? Or is there a deeper hidden issue here handling this volume of routes, for which i may have to tweak things?<br><br><br>Any help here is greatly appreciated. <br>
<br>Thanks<br>Sid Narasimhan<br><br>
