IPv6 Template
by Wolfgang Hennerbichler 19 Mar '10

19 Mar '10

Hi Ondrejs & Fellow BIRD users, I'm currently building the IPv6 Part of our BIRD Configuration Template. I'm trying to build it in the same way as our IPv4 stuff, which is trivial, because I've prepared all the code for a "dual stack" implementation. My question is, what your current best practice is for avoiding martians or unnecessary ipv6 routes (Like the Link Local Range, but I guess there are much more which I currently am not thinking about). Like in IPv4 I have this: prefix set martians; { martians = [ 169.254.0.0/16+, 172.16.0.0/12+, 192.168.0.0/16+, 10.0.0.0/8+, 224.0.0.0/4+, 240.0.0.0/4+ ]; if net.ip = 0.0.0.0 then return false; # Avoid too short and too long prefixes if (net.len < 8) || (net.len > 30) then return false; if net ~ martians then return false; return true; } What is your recommendation for that? Wolfgang PS: I think we have a very decent, awesome and super-automated IPv4 BIRD installation now @VIX, still not running productive, but as soon as IPv6 (and some minor tweaking in the webinterface) is done, we are going to run productive, which will be well before Euro-IX in Brussels. -- www.vix.at | www.aco.net wh(a)univie.ac.at | WH844-RIPE Vienna University Computer Center

log messages

11 Mar '10

I'm running 1.2.1, config is like log "/var/log/bird/bird6.log" all; .... protocol bgp Rxxxx { local as myas; neighbor 2001:7f8::y as xxxx; route limit maxv6; import all; export all; table Txxxxyyyy; password "password"; rs client; missing lladdr ignore; passive on; } Connection did not establish as peer hadn't password set. However as soon as he did session came up. So far, so good. But _why_ do I not see a log message?

[patch] kernel protocol learn on FreeBSD 7
by Eugene Perevyazko 02 Mar '10

02 Mar '10

Hello bird-users readers! I'm trying to use bird on PPP access-server running FreeBSD 7. The first problem I've met was bird not learning routes that are added and removed by ppp daemon based on Radius user-data. I've made a simple patch but not sure if it is full and correct. Can anyone review it? Especially I'm not sure what should be marked as KRT_SRC_REDIRECT and what are the consequences of not using this value. --- sysdep/bsd/krt-sock.c.old 2009-11-09 17:42:47.000000000 +0200 +++ sysdep/bsd/krt-sock.c 2009-11-09 17:48:58.000000000 +0200 @@ -269,6 +269,8 @@ int src; int flags = msg->rtm.rtm_flags; int addrs = msg->rtm.rtm_addrs; + pid_t sender_pid = msg->rtm.rtm_pid; + pid_t my_pid; int masklen = -1; if (!(flags & RTF_UP)) @@ -375,6 +377,12 @@ } src = KRT_SRC_UNKNOWN; /* FIXME */ + src = KRT_SRC_ALIEN; + my_pid = getpid(); + if (sender_pid == my_pid) + { + src = KRT_SRC_BIRD; + } e = rte_get_temp(&a); e->net = net; +++ sysdep/cf/bsd.h.old 2009-11-09 18:06:53.000000000 +0200 --- sysdep/cf/bsd.h 2009-11-09 17:38:21.000000000 +0200 @@ -7,7 +7,7 @@ */ #define CONFIG_AUTO_ROUTES -#undef CONFIG_SELF_CONSCIOUS +#define CONFIG_SELF_CONSCIOUS #undef CONFIG_MULTIPLE_TABLES #undef CONFIG_UNIX_IFACE -- Eugene Perevyazko

peering by link local address
by Makoto 02 Mar '10

02 Mar '10

Hi. I built bird with --enable-v6 on FreeBSD8.0, then tried to peer by link local IPv6 address, but I couldn’t. I have 2 questions. Can anyone help me? 1. lladdress specification I can get output "fe80:[IfIndex]::[EUI64]" by show interface command in birdc6. but I think correct lladress format is "fe80::[EUI64]". what is happened ? can I change to lladdresses I want to use? 2.Syntax I wonder how to specify lladdress peering configuration. I write as followings, but it says "Syntax error". What do I do wrong? protocol bgp { local as [ASN]; neighbor [lladdress]%[InterfaceName] as [ASN]; import all; export all; } Makoto.
