I've got a question about importing direct routes and interaction with BGP & OSPF. We have an issue with BIRD (1.6.3) when we do a 'configure soft' we end up with linknet routes being learned via indirect paths over OSPF which breaks BFD and BGP. It only happens with IPv6, not IPv4. Given routers A, B, C and D: A----B | | C----D Doing a 'birdc6 configure soft' on router A will sometimes end up with the linknet for A-C being put in the kernel table by OSPF learned from B. Not all interfaces are part of OSPF and I'm wondering if importing direct routes into BIRD for all interfaces would stop OSPF from trying to insert the routes into the kernel table? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
