Hi
First time user of bird here so please be gentle. :)
I am trying to use bird for a project and I'd like to use it for creating
separate routing tables in linux.
I tried to simplify my setup as much as possible like this:
[root@host1 etc]# cat bird.conf
log stderr all;
router id 172.30.2.20;
protocol device {
scan time 2; # Scan interfaces every 2 seconds
}
protocol kernel {
learn; # Learn all alien routes from the kernel
persist; # Don't remove routes on bird shutdown
scan time 2; # Scan kernel routing table every 2 seconds
graceful restart;
export all; # Default is export none
merge paths; # enable ecmp
}
protocol direct {
debug all;
interface "-dummy0", "dummy1", "eth*", "em*", "en*", "br-mgmt";
}
table extra;
protocol kernel kernelextra {
learn;
persist;
scan time 2;
table extra;
kernel table 100;
import all;
export all;
}
protocol pipe {
table extra;
peer table master;
import all;
export all;
}
[root@host1 etc]# ip link add mylink type dummy
[root@host1 etc]# ip link set mylink up
[root@host1 etc]# ip route add 10.0.2.3/32 dev mylink
[root@host1 etc]# systemctl restart bird
[root@host1 etc]# ip r
default via 172.29.0.1 dev eth1
10.0.2.3 dev mylink scope link
172.29.0.0/25 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 172.29.0.20
172.30.2.0/25 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 172.30.2.20
[root@host1 etc]# ip r show table 100
default via 172.29.0.1 dev eth1 proto bird
Is there any way that I can have the 10.0.2.3/32 route show up in kernel
table 100?
[root@host1 etc]# bird --version
BIRD version 1.6.8
Thank you so much for an awesome piece of software!
