Hi,

Thanks for the clarifications :)

The CPU is and AMD GX-412TC SOC.

Here is my configuration of the kernel protocol:

protocol kernel {
#       learn;

        # Don't remove routes on BIRD shutdown
        persist;

        # Export to the kernel.
        export all;

        preference 110;
}

As I’m not importing any route from it, is it possible (or a good idea)
to completely disable this scan with 'scan interval' or to put a very
huge parameter?
