Hi Ondrej,
It looks like made a mistake when testing my patch. It does in fact not fix
the problem. I then did some more reading of the linux scriptures and it
turns out PACKET_OUTGOING ("Out" in tcpdump) should actually be reliable so
that meant that the "M" means that packet is actually coming

FWIW, babeld uses the sin6_scope_id when sending

Hmm, I hadn't seen that. That is odd indeed.
Looking at this again I also noticed we

Thank you, this is exactly what I needed!
Just made a simple bash script to clean BGP and it worked. Quite sure it
could be better, but for my case it is good enough :)
#!/bin/bash
birdc sh pro | grep start | grep dynbgp | cut -d " " -f1 | while read

Hello!
IIRC, the right way to do it is to call
disable X;
for X in all protocol names you want to clear, and then request
reconfiguration which should clear them.
BTW thank you for pointing at this feature. There is currently no
automatic test suite for dynamic BGP and we should
Hi,

list of users, so I use “neighbor range 0.0.0.0/0 external;” and a passive
mode.
In this situation, there are some dynamic protocols created by port
scanners or some other one-time connections. It is not a big deal,
