<div>Hi Lars,<br>
Hi Bird-List,<br>
<br>
Could you share the patch for this workaround please?<br>
<br>
Guess we share the same goals?:<br>
<br>
a) I want to announce a /32 (IPv4) or /128 IPv6 of course per service.<br>
b) I want to run multiple services on one single maschine in (Linux)<br>
namespaces, f.e. via Docker<br>
c) I want each service to connect to the network, when it's ready for<br>
service by announcing it's more specific (somehow similar to a))<br>
d) bird/bgp shouldnt't need to run as root (which a T179 socket makes difficult)<br>
<br>
Q1: How do you orchestrate you services?<br>
Q2: Do you do any service checking and "announcement decision" based<br>
on the result?<br>
<br>
Q3: Did you also check exaBGP or goBGP?<br>
<br>
Anyone any good experience with the k8s CNI stuff?<br>
<br>
Rgds, SJ<br>
