HI All, Is anyone out there using BIRD for an MPLS route reflector? I am looking for some advice / direction on the .conf for the VPNV4 table. Cheers, Tom
Thanks Alexander. Well, basically my issue... As soon as I add: vpn4 table XXXX_table; to the .conf and reconfig I get a syntax error. I am in the setup phase so im wondering if I have missed something. Tom. From: owner-bird-users@atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz [mailto:owner-bird-users@atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz] On Behalf Of Alexander V.

MP-bgp and label support is currently not available in stock bird (however there are plans to do so). It is basically available as net/bird_devel port on FreeBSD but you have to compile it by hand on other operating systems.

Thanks Alexander. We are trying with the current 1.4.0 release. Not having any joy compiling on Ubuntu. Perhaps moving to FreeBSD will be the best option moving forward. Thanks for the direction.

Tom, I used these package sources on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with great success, no compiling needed. jstewart@rs1:/etc/apt/sources.list.d$ cat cz_nic-labs-bird-precise.list deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/cz.nic-labs/bird/ubuntu precise main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/cz.nic-labs/bird/ubuntu precise main On Mon, Feb 3, 2014 at 5:46 PM, Tom Berryman <tom@connectivityit.com.au>wrote:
