There is a FAQ page in BIRD wiki: https://redmine.labs.nic.cz/projects/bird/wiki/FAQ Perhaps we could add a direct link on the main web page.

Well, it is from the point of view of the routing table not from the point of view of the protocol. I am not sure which one is more intuitive, but for a BGP protocol 'export to the protocol' also means 'export to the peer', so POW of the routing table is probably more important. -- 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."
