Hello,
For performance reasons that do not deserve to be detailed here, I am trying to set up 2 separate BGP sessions between my Linux server running Bird and an Arista switch.
The Linux machines has 2 IPs on loopback, i would like to initiate a connexion from each of them.
I have IPs 192.168.0.11 and 192.168.0.12 on the server loopback, and 192.168.0.1 on the switch loopback. ... Can you confirm this is a limitation in Bird ? Is there a reason for it, apart from the fact that it is a non-standard case ? Is there a way to bypass it ? Hello
This is a limitation in BIRD - it does not allow two BGP sessions to the same remote IP address. The solution is to use two IP addresses also on the other side (switch).
