Hi all,
I have /31s from an upstream provider on v4. If I specify "scope link"
in /etc/network/interfaces for these, FRR seemingly doesn't allow the
address to be used for update-source.
Minimal reproduction example (taken from one of my core routers):
/e/n/i config:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
up ip addr add 195.246.200.2/32 scope global dev lo
auto ens4
iface ens4 inet static
address 192.168.1.3/31
scope link
FRR config:
router bgp 65000
neighbor 192.168.1.2 remote-as 65001
neighbor 192.168.1.2 interface ens4
neighbor 192.168.1.2 update-source 192.168.1.3
What happens in this case, is that FRR sends updates from 172.16.0.2
instead of 192.168.1.3 (despite being explicitly told otherwise!).
Have I found a bug, or have I done something stupid?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Chris Malton
