Hi all, I have a very specific use case in which it would be nice if I could set up BGP sessions from link-local address to another link-local address across a link.
This is what I have, and the error I am getting:
root@test203:/etc# service bird6 start
Mar 7 15:27:11 test203 bird6: Started
Mar 7 15:27:11 test203 bird6: bgp1: Invalid remote address
fe80::200:5efe:d413:dc3a
^C
root@test203:/etc# cat bird6.conf
router id 1.1.2.3;
protocol kernel {
persist; # Don't remove routes on bird shutdown
scan time 20; # Scan kernel routing table every 20 seconds
export all; # Default is export none
}
protocol device {
scan time 10; # Scan interfaces every 10 seconds
}
protocol bgp {
local as 64496;
neighbor fe80::200:5efe:d413:dc3a as 65000;
source address fe80::200:5efe:4e98:2a46;
}
root@test203:/etc#
Addresses in the form of fe80::200:5efe:d413:dc3a%eth0 are also not accepted.
Kind regards,
