Greetings, I have stumbled on a problem with the new (v3) BIRD. I've been using
v2 (still using 2.15.1 on old systems) over the years without problems.
The kernel4 protocol is defined with the following options:
* persist off; (I need the routes to exist only when the BIRD is running)
* scan time 86400; (BIRD v2 had a very hard time scanning Full View routing
tables, so I have incremented this number)
* learn off; (I only need to export routes to the kernel)
// Disregard the full view comment, I am having a problem even with a simplest
setup with 1 or 2 routes.
"birdcl show route export kernel4" shows that routes are supposed to be
exported to the kernel:
10.0.4.0/24 unicast [users 16:43:23.752 from fe80::be24:11ff:fe00:303]
* (100) [AS65004i]
via 10.0.3.3 on eth1
However, when I check the routes (ip -4 r), they are not there.
If I run the "birdcl configure", the routes do not appear.
If I restart the protocol with "birdcl restart kernel4", I start to see the
routes in the routing table.
Some time passes (something about an hour) and they disappear (without a single
message in the logs).
Please advise how can I further debug/fix this problem.
