Nice, will try that. One additional question: if leverage kernel protocol, it means local routing tables already contain the default learnt through DHCP. Wouldn't this generate some kind of warning (ie. bird4: Netlink: File exists) when bird, say on R2 to install R1 as default, tries to overwrite the local default with the one generated by OSPF?
It will try to install it on both R1 and R2 (as kernel-learned routes has lower default preference than OSPF routes). In that case it will generate warning. On Linux, it is suggested to use 'metric' option of kernel protocol to avoid collision with alien routes. But in your case the proper solution is to set preference of kernel protocol higher than OSPF (say 160). -- 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."
