Subject: BGP: Interface range bind
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=39258b50239373c2cc343d4b7f0107bca0a40b8e;p=thirdparty%2Fbird.git

BGP: Interface range bind

For dynamic onlink connections, we need to find out which interface
the connection came in, and we need to pin that connection to
that interface. To achieve that, we create a listening socket
bound to each interface separately, and match the incoming connection
by the socket. Otherwise, the kernel would not give us any information
on where the connection came from.

+	Set interface pattern to which the connection will be bound. This is
+	mostly useful with the <cf/neighbor range/ option and either link-local
+	addresses or with the <cf/onlink/ option where it's not known up front
+	which interface the connection comes on but it needs to stay there.
+
+	This option requires <cf/strict bind/ to be on and creates a separate
+	listening socket for every single interface matching the pattern. If the
+	local address is set, it also requires this exact address to be set
+	on that interface to create a listening socket.
+

 	For a direct neighbor, the BGP session starts immediately without
 	waiting for the neighbor's address to appear on any interface.
