Hi, I'm trying to replace one of our Junipers and I've come up with bizzare problem. I'm trying to run OSPF instance on VRF (I don't think problem is VRF related, I tried without VRF and it's same result) and I see both peers and the LSA database are getting filled ☠ ip r sh vrf vrf-core 10.30.0.0/31 dev b-swcore.3011 proto kernel scope link src 10.30.0.0 10.30.0.4/31 dev b-swcore.3012 proto kernel scope link src 10.30.0.4 10.30.1.0/31 dev b-swcore.3000 proto kernel scope link src 10.30.1.0 bird> show ospf neighbors core: Router ID Pri State DTime Interface Router IP 10.100.1.1 1 Full/PtP 37.905 b-swcore.3011 10.30.0.1 10.100.1.2 1 Full/PtP 37.904 b-swcore.3012 10.30.0.5 193.200.227.2 128 Full/PtP 39.907 b-swcore.3000 10.30.1.1 bird> show ospf state area 0.0.0.0 router 193.200.227.1 distance 0 router 10.100.1.1 metric 10 router 10.100.1.2 metric 10 router 193.200.227.2 metric 10 stubnet 193.200.227.1/32 metric 0 stubnet 10.30.1.0/31 metric 10 stubnet 10.30.0.0/31 metric 10 stubnet 10.30.0.4/31 metric 10 stubnet 10.30.1.0/31 metric 10 bird> show ospf topology area 0.0.0.0 router 193.200.227.1 distance 0 router 10.100.1.1 metric 10 router 10.100.1.2 metric 10 router 193.200.227.2 metric 10 bird> show protocols Name Proto Table State Since Info device1 Device --- up 2026-02-11 15:43:43.320 kcore Kernel master4 up 2026-02-11 15:43:43.320 core OSPF master4 up 2026-02-11 15:43:43.320 Running (kcore is fetching from VRF kernel table to the main bird table) config is very bare bones protocol ospf core { vrf "vrf-core"; ipv4 { import keep filtered on; import all; export all; }; area 0 { interface "b-swcore.30*" { }; interface "vrf-core" { stub; }; }; }; protocol kernel kcore { kernel table 1002; learn all; ipv4 { export none; import all; }; }; but I'm only getting my own routes bird> show route Table master4: 10.30.1.0/31 unicast [core 2026-02-11 16:21:37.684] * I (150/10) [193.200.227.1] dev b-swcore.3000 unicast [kcore 2026-02-11 16:21:38.584] (10) dev b-swcore.3000 10.30.0.0/31 unicast [core 2026-02-11 16:21:37.684] * I (150/10) [193.200.227.1] dev b-swcore.3011 unicast [kcore 2026-02-11 16:21:38.584] (10) dev b-swcore.3011 10.30.0.4/31 unicast [core 2026-02-11 16:21:37.684] * I (150/10) [193.200.227.1] dev b-swcore.3012 unicast [kcore 2026-02-11 16:21:38.584] (10) dev b-swcore.3012 193.200.227.1/32 unicast [core 2026-02-11 16:21:37.684] * I (150/0) [193.200.227.1] dev vrf-core bird> So far I tried running it outside of VRF and adding some PtP related options to OSPF but it didn't change anything I'm getting warnings about broadcast address Feb 11 16:21:37 d1-r1 bird[7194]: Missing broadcast address for interface b-swcore.3011 Feb 11 16:21:37 d1-r1 bird[7194]: Missing broadcast address for interface b-swcore.3012 Feb 11 16:21:37 d1-r1 bird[7194]: Missing broadcast address for interface b-swcore.3000 but those appear to be unrelated, I've changed one of the /31 links to /30 and nothing changed Version is 3.1.0 from Debian package but I also tried to downgrade to 2.x with no effect.

Any ideas how I can even debug what's happening in the first place ? Regards -- Mariusz Gronczewski (XANi) <xani+bird@devrandom.pl> GnuPG: 0xEA8ACE64 https://devrandom.eu
