Hi list,

Today I spend a lot of time debugging why BIRD doesn't get our IPSO VRRP cluster in 2WAY state, while junos and IOS routers do. ... Both IPSO routers send OSPF messages with RID .3, see below. ... My guess is that neighbors are created based on their address instead of their RID. Looking at the info below I'm guessing this is not correct.

Can this be fixed?

Yes, you are right. BIRD deviates from OSPF standard in that behavior. We will fix that. -- 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."
