Hi team,
We've just got the update of bird
(bird-2.16.2-1.el9.x86_64->bird-3.1.1-1.el9.x86_64) delivered via rpm
updates and it broke our configuration with the following error message:
`/etc/bird.conf:7:5 syntax error, unexpected ONLINK`
By reading the migration guide, i see that it was a deliberate choice to
stop supporting this attribute: "The|onlink|route attribute has been
temporarily disabled until we find out how to implement it properly."
We used the functionality implemented in
7144c9ca46f092da33a4e051bbce8f973a3bd8c4 . In particular, with the
following configuration:
```
ifname = "tunl0";
onlink = true;
gw = from;
```
Is there a plan to bring back support for it in the nearby future?
If not, I will try to get in touch with the maintainer of the package in
EPEL to see if it's possible to submit and keep maintaining a "bird2"
branch of this package in EPEL.
Regards,
Radu
