Hi Ondrej,

This was the first thread on this topic, and the use case for that was to use with DPDK application in the user space.

https://bird.network.cz/pipermail/bird-users/2018-December/012973.html

Our use case is, we already have a protocol stack other than bird that updates routed(RTM route table manager) which in turn updates the kernel. Now we wanted the bird also to update the routed instead of kernel.

Thanks and Regards,
Senthil

Hi


That is an interesting feature. What is a use case for it? Some other
tool to communicate with?
