Multiple RIB

18 Sep 2018

      Hi,

I have been trying to setup a simple config using multiple RIB for a Route
Server. Here are two compatible configurations, the first with multiple
tables, the second with a single master configuration. The single master
works fine and the peers get routing updates but the multiple tables
version does not pass routes. ANy ideas why ?

regards,
