Hello There is a patch for BIRD in FreeBSD ports that causes OSPF crash: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports?view=revision&revision=484648 22 + if (en->lsa_body && (en->lsa.age == LSA_MAXAGE)) 23 + { 24 + /* en could be an unexpected self-originated lsa in which case nf is NULL */ 25 + log(L_INFO "%s: Found flushing LSA while originating %I/%d with fib: %p", 26 + p->p.name, lsa->nf->fn.prefix, lsa->nf->fn.pxlen, en->nf); 27 + en->nf = lsa->nf; 28 + } 29 lsa->nf here may be NULL. I would suggest to send BIRD patches for review to the BIRD mailing list so we can review it and also merge it upstream. -- 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."
