Hi, I'm using the Bird for a project and I need to use command line interface such as Cisco router for OSPF config. Bird and birdc using .conf file for configuration. Are there any way for config with CLI? How enable interactive mode of bird? By regards, Zeinab

Hi No. CLI can be used for inspecting BIRD state, not for configuring BIRD. -- 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."
Zeinab, I can suggest you work like this: Open two windows/CLI sessions on the BIRD router. In one, run birdc. In the other, open the bird config file. Edit the bird config in your favorite text editor, then save it. In the other window, run the 'configure' command to load in the new config. In this way, you'll update the 'running-config' from the saved config on the hard drive, and you'll never forget to save your 'running-config'. Hope that helps, Jonathan On Tue, Jul 24, 2018 at 8:02 AM Ondrej Zajicek <santiago@crfreenet.org> wrote:
