Hi, continuing the implemetation of blackhole in our IXP, I've faced with problem of changing next-hop for the route. Construction looks like if (net.len = 32 && bgp_community ~ [ (31210,*) ] && bgp_community ~ [ (0,666) ] ) then { gw = 193.25.181.253; return true; } results in : bird> show route for 95.67.13.2/32 all 95.67.13.2/32 via 193.25.181.253 on bge0 [COSMONOVA2 2014-04-04 17:59:19 from 193.25.180.133] * (50) [AS34867i] Type: BGP unicast univ BGP.origin: IGP BGP.as_path: 34867 BGP.next_hop: 193.25.180.133 BGP.local_pref: 100 BGP.community: (0,666) (31210,31210) And when this route is announced to other peer, next-hop remains unchanged: Peerings.inet.0: 16708 destinations, 50556 routes (16627 active, 0 holddown, 88 hidden) + = Active Route, - = Last Active, * = Both 95.67.13.2/32 *[BGP/170] 00:12:14, localpref 100, from 193.25.180.255 AS path: 34867 I > to 193.25.180.133 via xe-1/0/0.777 As far as I understand from User's Guide, gw is an read-write attribute, so why it didn't change next-hop?
