You probably missed the fact that I’m using Link-Local Addresses. "Multihop BGP cannot be used with link-local addresses"

Try it. It is not about real multihop session, it is about how bird choose interfaces to listen.

They're directly connected, so it's not a multihop session so no.

Hi!
Have you tried to add option “multihop” in the BGP peer configuration? Usually it helps.
Best regards. Valery

Yes, absolutely nothing appears to be binded according to netstat and nmap.
I only saw bird bind the control socket when debugging with strace.
The logs only has the "Waiting for fe80:10::1%wg1 to bocame my neighbor".
The user is root, and I can ping/nmap fine over the tunnel.

Hi,
So nothing in netstat? And what have you seen in strace? Maybe something in logs?

Hi there,
I’m fairly certain that my issue is something rather small, or stupid but I’m unable to get Bird to listen on the 179 port.
The other side has direct in the protocol definition which is correct, and I tried this side with that as well but it only says “as213021_hel_node: Waiting for fe80:10::1%wg1 to become my neighbor” so I don’t really have more clues.
I did try to do strace and look for bind events, but couldn’t find any except for the control socket.
