Filters giving odd errors

Hi there, I'm using the template from https://github.com/neptune-networks/peering/blob/master/out/router.fqdn.exa… for my filters, and I'm getting argument related errors in logs. What's the issue with those filters? P.S I need to find a guide on how to do bird2 and RPKI as well.

reload fails at static protocol
by Farhad 13 Aug '20

13 Aug '20

Hello, I am trying to change my bird config file and then reload it, but when I try to do *reload all* or *reload in all * reload will fail at static1 and static2, but* reload out all* will be successful. I am not sure what I am missing, your help is much appreciated. I have the below configs: protocol kernel { ipv4 { table v116; export all; }; kernel table 116; } protocol kernel { ipv4 { table v1120; export all; }; kernel table 1120; } protocol bfd { interface "eth1" { min rx interval 20 ms; min tx interval 50 ms; idle tx interval 300 ms; }; } protocol static { ipv4 { table v116; }; route 0.0.0.0/0 via 10.17.3.236 bfd; } protocol static { ipv4 { table v1120; }; route 0.0.0.0/0 via 10.17.3.232 bfd; } Regards, Farhad

Question about BGP advertisement-interval in BIRD
by Kim Charles 10 Aug '20

10 Aug '20

Hi, I'm currently using BIRD version 1.6.3 and I'm looking for any equivalent in BIRD for FRR BGP advertisement-interval option as below. It would be appreciated if you can help me on this. [no] neighbor PEER advertisement-interval (0-600) Setup the minimum route advertisement interval(mrai) for the peer in question. This number is between 0 and 600 seconds, with the default advertisement interval being 0.

static route - policy based routing in Bird,
by Farhad 05 Aug '20

05 Aug '20

Hello, I am new to bird, there is something which I don't know how to achieve using bird. Is there a way in which I can forward traffics originated from a specific network to some designated interfaces? protocol kernel { ipv4 { table tabl1; export all; }; kernel table 1; } protocol kernel { ipv4 { table tabl2; export all; }; kernel table 2; } protocol static { ipv4 { table table1; }; route 0.0.0.0/0 via 10.7.3.249 bfd via 10.9.3.251 bfd; } protocol static { ipv4 { table table2; }; route 0.0.0.0/0 via 10.8.3.244 bfd; } In linux i can do something like this: *ip rule add type unicast from 1.0.0.1 table 1* *ip rule add type unicast from 2.0.0.1 table 2* Is there a way these rules can be achieved using filter or Pipe in Bird? I am curious whether this can be done in Bird without depending on 'ip rule' of linux. Regards, Farhad

Analyzing AS PATH in packets
by Julien Sansonnens 04 Aug '20

04 Aug '20

Dear all, using bird 2.0.7 I'm a bit confused with the output of "show route export". I'm exporting a full table to a downstream. I'm expecting to see my own AS as the first AS in AS PATH but it will not show in "BGP.as_path" If I prepend it, then it appears on the output. I don't know if it's related to display, or if my AS is really not added to the PATH. Perhaps it is added later in the process, before leaving my router ? How can I check this? I tried with "debug", but to my knowledge, it is not possible to display route details. I thought about doing tcpdump, but I haven't found out how to interpret the result correctly and see the AS PATH. Would you have a clue on how to see exactly what is being exported on an interface? thanks a lot Julien

How to pipe ipv6 channel into ipv6 channel or possible alternatives
by Nick Cao 03 Aug '20

03 Aug '20

I'm trying to use babel (namely, with the ipv6 sadr channel) together with bgp, and thus I got route from both channels to be installed into kernel. But the limitation of kernel protocol dictates that I seem to have no choice other than separate the routes into different kernel routing tables, then use ip rules to take them into effect. However I found some interesting discussion in the mailing list (https://bird.network.cz/pipermail/bird-users/2017-May/011277.html) indicating that we can convert (or pipe) ipv6 channel into ipv6 sadr channel, which, sadly still has't made it's way into bird as far as I know. I'd like to ask whether there's some way to mimic that sort of behavior, or is there any alternative to that so that ipv6 sadr channel can play nicely with the ipv6 channel. ---------------------------------------- Nick Cao <nickcao(a)nichi.co>

Automated builds of Bird 2 for mips
by Skyler Mäntysaari 03 Aug '20

03 Aug '20

Hello, I was wondering that does anyone have an existing automated CI pipeline to build a Bird 2 .deb package? If not, got any pointers on the QEMU image run with Travis CI, Circle CI, Gitlab CI or some other public/open source CI?
