Is there any way for other programs to listen for Bird events regarding Link Failure (IE: OSPF/BFD dead neighbor)?
Bird is great, but the modems and device drivers I am working with are not. I can get some pretty odd ‘zombie’ states on network interfaces, and the BFD session going down is often the best indicator something bad happened. I was hoping to get that information from bird and take actions to fix it.
Hi One way is to add 'debug { events };' to OSPF protocol and use log matching features of newer syslog daemons (like rsyslog). -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'Santiago' Zajicek (email: santiago@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
