Hi, It would be nice to be able to use "indirect" gateways, i.e. which are routed via interface but are not part of interface networks, like this: protocol static { route 10.1.1.0/24 via "eth0"; route 10.2.1.0/24 via 10.1.1.1; } Linux supports this, so it would be really useful and opens interesting opportunities, like automatically adding routes once specified gateway becomes reachable after adding an interface-bound route (either outside or inside of Bird). One possible application (from my actual configuration) is routing of specific networks through VPN gateway - the gateway itself is in /30 transfer network (and this could not be changed easily) so I could not make it reachable directly on more than one Bird router simultaneously. Please consider this for next release :) Thank you! -- With best regards, Alexander.
