Hi Anand Buddhdev,

Change the preference in your static protocol configuration:

protocol static {
  route 0.0.0.0/0 unreachable;
  preference 99;
}

Before:

bird> show route 0.0.0.0/0
0.0.0.0/0          unreachable [static1 16:21:11] * (200)
                   unreachable [Customer 16:03:09 from 10.10.10.101] (100/-) [i]

After:

bird> show route 0.0.0.0/0
0.0.0.0/0          unreachable [Customer 16:03:09 from 10.10.10.101] * (100/-) [i]
                   unreachable [static1 16:22:17] (99)

You can set any value lower then 100.

Regards

Dear BIRD users,

I want to configure bird with a static default like this:

protocol static {
  route 0.0.0.0/0 unreachable;
}

so that if a more specific route isn't known, packets are discarded.
With the same BIRD instance, I want to peer over BGP with multiple
peers. However, if any one of these peers provides a default route over
BGP, I want it to take precedence over the static. How do I get bird to
install the peer-supplied default with a higher weight?

Regards,
Anand
