import or export table is a command to note, that the routes will be locally stored in a table for import or export. So you do not need to write it down, it's just a switch.
Check the documentation for BGP https://bird.nic.cz/doc/bird-2.16.2.html#bgp and tag "import table switch".
Thanks - that makes it clearer. I'll have to live with the log entries for the near future and might look at implementing received-tables.
Btw, as came up yesterday - I'd like to emphasize the necessity of being able to configure log output on a more granular level. Perhaps there's something in the works already?
I think you just need to add 2 lines / 4 words to your configuration: See slide 18 https://ripe87.ripe.net/presentations/25-2023_11_27_ripe_bird_tutorial.pdf protocol bgp { ipv6 { table master6; import table; /* keep received routes */ export table; ... }; ipv4 { table master4; import table; /* keep received routes */ export table; ... }; ... } Kind regards, Job
