I've started to set up an IPv6 route-server and got first issue:

bird6 fails to start with error: bird: /usr/local/etc/bird6.conf, line 92: Invalid prefix You have to zero all wildcard bits (e.g. 2001:7f8:63::/64) if you're specifying prefix.
Yes, note also that 'primary' option is AFAIK pointless on IPv6 and more or less pointless on IPv4. To specify source address of BGP session, use 'source address' option, or 'local IP as ASN' syntax in the BGP session. -- 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."
