Just a note that moving filters from pipes to bgp protocols have several other consequences, some positive, some negative: 1) You see just what is accepted and you cannot directly see rejected routes (but they can be seen in log, if enabled). 2) Rejected routes does not eat memory. 3) If you change filters and call 'configure', the appropriate protocol si restarted. If it is a pipe, it causes a route flap (routes propagated through the pipe a withdrawn and immediately repropagated), if it is a bgp protocol, it also causes a session flap (BGP session is restarted). Possible workaround is to use 'configure soft' command (which ignores changes related to filters) and then 'reload' command for protocols with changed filters. We will change the behavior of 'configure' command to do this automatically in next versions. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'SanTiago' Zajicek (email: santi...@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
