Hi Bird users,
I am seeing different behavior with respect to OSPF type 5
LSA routes. The setup contains two routers R1,R2 as shown below. OSPF
is running on eth2 of both routers R1,R2. R1 router eth1 interface is
in OSPF passive mode. We are configuring a static route on R1 and it
is getting advertised into the OSPF domain. The static route
configured on R1 is: 33.0.0.0/8 gateway 172.19.13.1
(eth1:172.19.13.128/24) R1 (eth2:55.55.55.100/24 )
<--------------------------> (eth2: 55.55.55.200/24) R2
CASE 1: When Static routes first get added on R1, after that eth1
interface added to OSPF on R1.
We can see the Static route always present on R2 as a type 5
route and there is no impact of removing eth1 from OSPF on the R1
router.
CASE 2: When eth1 added as OSPF interface on R1 first, then static
route added later. Deletion eth1 from OSPF on R1 , deletes static
route also from R2.
Incase of Case 2, the behavior we observe is a bug ?
Case 1, 2 bird logs are attached.
Regards,
Bala.
