Hi all, I've just started playing around with BIRD: I configured a server with v. 1.2.1 Simple configuration, just to test, with 2 routers: one is ours, the other is a member's router. From what I see, the session between the member and the RS is ok, while the session between our router and the RS cannot be established. The logfile says: 07-05-2010 15:33:43 <RMT> MIX: Received: Malformed AS_PATH: 4002040201315d and birdc says: bird> show protocols all MIX name proto table state since info MIX BGP T_MIX start 15:33 Idle Received: Malformed AS_PATH Description: MIX Preference: 100 Input filter: ACCEPT Output filter: ACCEPT Routes: 0 imported, 0 exported, 0 preferred Route change stats: received rejected filtered ignored accepted Import updates: 0 0 0 0 0 Import withdraws: 0 0 --- 0 0 Export updates: 0 0 0 --- 0 Export withdraws: 0 --- --- --- 0 Pipe protocols are declared in transparent mode. On my peering router the session with the RS goes from Idle to Active, than Idle again. The route server is currently configured with a private AS, but I think it shouldn't be a problem.
