Ondrej,
Is there perhaps a possibility to make this patch as an configure option when running bird?
This patch seems to be for older (1.2.x) versions and not really applicable for the current version. In current BIRD, the link detection (which is what the patch should add) is already merged. but you have to add 'check link' option to OSPF to follow that. There is still a slight difference - when link is down, but interface is administratively up (which is probably the case with backup carp), the /32 address of iface is propagated instead of the full prefix. But that is probably not a big problem. -- 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."
