<br>
I want to configure bird with a static default like this:<br>
<br>
protocol static {<br>
route <a href="http://0.0.0.0/0" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">0.0.0.0/0</a> unreachable;<br>
}<br>
<br>
so that if a more specific route isn't known, packets are discarded.<br>
With the same BIRD instance, I want to peer over BGP with multiple<br>
peers. However, if any one of these peers provides a default route over<br>
BGP, I want it to take precedence over the static. How do I get bird to<br>
install the peer-supplied default with a higher weight?<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
