Re: Bird within netns (no OS routing table injection with BGP)

Hi all,

I'm trying to use bird within netns with something like "ip netns exec foo bird".

I can see received routes in "show route" but the injection in the OS routing table is not done.

Strangely, static routes are correctly injected. With BGP routes I have no particulary debug messages, except "Netlink: Invalid argument" with bird6.

Using Quagga, routes are correctly injected inside netns.

Any idea about that problem?

I've not used "ip netns exec" but I have successfully used unshare -n to do this. -- Alex Bligh
