Hello,
I am watching this project for a year now and I Feel that it's time to
try some of its features
I have 2x2811 cisco connected to the isps
Behind them I have a linux box running shorewall firewall and
wish to have some routing daemon to manage fail over and load ballancing
...
cisco 1 is confed as
-------------------------------------
!
router bgp 12
no synchronization
bgp router-id xx.xx.xx.xx
bgp log-neighbor-changes
network 0.0.0.0
redistribute connected
neighbor 10.0.11.2 remote-as 10
auto-summary
!
------------------------------------------
cisco 2 as
!
router bgp 11
no synchronization
bgp router-id xx.xx.xx.xx
bgp log-neighbor-changes
network 0.0.0.0
redistribute connected
neighbor 10.0.12.2 remote-as 10
auto-summary
!
---------------------------------------------
The linux BOX is running an old version of quagga bgp soon to be updated
current config is
-----------------------------------------------------------
Current configuration:
!
hostname bgpd
log stdout
!
router bgp 10
bgp router-id 10.0.173.254
bgp log-neighbor-changes
network 10.0.173.0/24
network 10.168.1.0/24
network xx.xx.xx.xx
network xx.xx.xx.xx
neighbor 10.0.11.1 remote-as 12
neighbor 10.0.11.1 weight 100
neighbor 10.0.11.1 soft-reconfiguration inbound
neighbor 10.0.11.1 route-map rm_peer_1_in in
neighbor 10.0.12.1 remote-as 11
neighbor 10.0.12.1 weight 50
neighbor 10.0.12.1 soft-reconfiguration inbound
neighbor 10.0.12.1 route-map rm_peer_2_in in
!
route-map rm_peer_1_in permit 5
set local-preference 100
!
route-map rm_peer_2_in permit 5
set local-preference 100
!
line vty

end

and
show ip bgp shows

BGP table version is 0, local router ID is 10.0.173.254

Ok so far so good ...
Can I achieve the load balancer and fail over with bird with a conf like
the above ...
If yes that is Great cause here comes Q2
Q2
One of the isp's is giving me a /64 ipv6 dynamic prefix ....
Since I thought I saw some radvd daemon included in bird ...
Can radvd be confed to break this dynamic ipv6 and distribute it to the
internal zones and network ???
Thanx in advance.
Regards
Harry.
