Too tired right now, sorry.  I need to set up FRR or BIRD to speak RIPng
to our Cisco, so the Babel network gets a default IPv6 route, and to set
up a few wireless routers in random places.

It needs to know, for each route:

  - the announced metric;
  - the computed metric;
  - the next hop;
  - the router-id.

It matches next-hops with router-ids by looking for routes with announced
metric being zero, so if your network doesn't have enough such routes, it
will not work very well.
