Hello, one of participants of our IXP trying to build BGP session with Route-server running bird v. 1.2.4. The problem is that customer uses BGP on Alcatel-Lucent OS-6850. It seems that this switch requires first-as matching peer-as and no way to change its behavior. We're using next configuration for peers: protocol bgp PEER { passive; local as MyASN; neighbor x.x.x.x as PeerASN; rs client; import where bgp_in([ ... ]); export where bgp_out(PeerASN); } Is there a way to keep "rs client" functionality, but add MyASN to as-path? If I create separate export filter with prepends, will it work? Thanks in advance! -- MINO-RIPE

You could probably just add bgp_path.prepend(MyASN) to the export filter - that should work. -- 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."
