I'm having a problem with bird 1.5.0 running OSPFv3. When I add a host route(/128) to "lo" interface, and add the "lo" interface to an OSPF area, the interface doesn't get picked up, and consequently the route isn't announced.

Hi This is a known problem, the simple workaround is either to add link-local address to the loopback (e.g. fe80::1/64), or use dummy interface instead of loopback. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'Santiago' Zajicek (email: santiago@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
