Hello list, is there any best practise to advertise static routes when interface names change? I have many ppp uplinks running on a server (ppp0, ppp1, ppp2 etc.) with static routes on them which I configure like this:
protocol static { route 10.0.0.0/28 via 169.254.0.1; route 10.0.0.1/28 via 169.254.0.1; route 10.0.0.2/28 via 169.254.0.2; }
On startup, bird recognizes perfectly which interface they belong to but if ppp reconnects, the interface name may change and so does the routing information - so it has to be updated by bird, is that any possible? All I can do right now is "check link on" so routes will disappear at least when interfaces go down. There is no 'scan' option for static routes as far as I understand the documentation, or can this be done any differently? Thanks, Amadeus
