Hello First some OSPF area hints: 1. rule of OSPF areas: Don't use it unless you know exactly what are you doing. 2. rule of OSPF areas: If you still want to use it, stick to stub and NSSA areas and avoid transit areas and especially vlinks. Just change transit areas to the backbone. > 2. Whenever I throw 'virtual link' in an area, bird segfaults on > startup.

As you are probably the first who tried to use vlinks in OSPFv3, expect some unexpected behavior ;-) . > Hopefully someone can help me out, otherwise I suppose I'll dig into it > this weekend. > > I did take a quick look at the diff between 1.3.7 and master, but the > changes seemed somewhat insignificant for this specific issue.
