<br>
I want to export a route learned from BGP to the kernel. but I want to<br>
modify the route while exporting because I want to use a VTI instead of<br>
the next hop route.<br>
<br>
<br>
So instead of <a href="http://192.168.0.0/24" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">192.168.0.0/24</a> via 10.0.0.1 I want to export<br>
<br>
<a href="http://192.168.0.0/24" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">192.168.0.0/24</a> dev vti0 to the kernel.<br>
<br>
<br>
Is this possible with bird? If yes, how can I acchieve this?<br>
<br>
<br>
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,<br>
