Hey! I wanted to set `hostname "foo";` within `template bgp ... { ... };` and got `syntax error, unexpected HOSTNAME`. As a workaround I can set the hostname on the global level but I would like to see that's possible to set hostname on a protocol level. My use-case (that's why I stumbled upon it) is that I've been connected to dn42 and wanted to announce `cpe.bernd.dn42` on my peers and not just the systems `cpe`, or it's unhelpful fqdn `cpe.home.arpa`.[1] I'm running BIRD version 2.15.1 on OpenWrt 23.05.5. Thanks! Bernd [1] Yes, I do really like `home.arpa.`.
