Hi, very new to BIRD, we use Quagga but I'm looking at implementing both. I have a Cisco 7200 peering with BIRD, as soon as I enable the peering the 7200 gets the full internet routing table but then hits 100% CPU until I disable the peering. I have peered the 7200 with Quagga and sent the full table and it has no problems at all, sits at around 40% CPU with the same full table. Here is the relevant config which is very basic, I've changed most of the settings without any change in the behaviour :( protocol kernel { # learn; # Learn all alien routes from the kernel # persist; # Don't remove routes on bird shutdown # scan time 20; # Scan kernel routing table every 20 seconds # import all; # Default is import all # export all; # Default is export none # kernel table 5; # Kernel table to synchronize with (default: main) } # This pseudo-protocol watches all interface up/down events. protocol device { scan time 1000; # Scan interfaces every 10 seconds protocol bgp RR_Test { description "RR_Test"; local as yyyy; neighbor x.x.x.x as yyyy; rr client; # export filter bgp_out; rr cluster id 0.0.0.10; export all; multihop; # import filter bgp_in; next hop self; source address x.x.x.x; ________________________________ NOTICE AND DISCLAIMER This e-mail (including any attachments) is intended for the above-named person(s).
