Could you help me understand it please :) ? And I had another question about router id, in the configuration file, it is said that the router id should be an IPv6. But when I put my IPv6 in it, I get the following error : bird: /etc/bird/bird6.conf:21:11 Router IDs must be entered as hexadecimal numbers or IPv4 addresses in IPv6 version Bests, -- shirenn
Hi,
And I had another question about router id, in the configuration file, it is said that the router id should be an IPv6. But when I put my IPv6 in it, I get the following error: bird: /etc/bird/bird6.conf:21:11 Router IDs must be entered as hexadecimal numbers or IPv4 addresses in IPv6 version
An router-id is "just" an arbitrary number, where the format is equal to how an IPv4 address looks. Even for your IPv6 bird instance. The router-id can be any random address. (Usually equal to your router's mgmt ipv4 address or another ipv4 address on your routers loopback interface.) router-id: (25[0-5]|2[0-4][\d]|[1-2]?[\d]{1,2})\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][\d]|[1-2]?[\d]{1,2})\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][\d]|[1-2]?[\d]{1,2})\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][\d]|[1-2]?[\d]{1,2}) ⇐ regex to match -- Chriztoffer
