Sorry, should have been a little clearer. I have tried setting up my routing like: http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html
And my bird setup is like: https://git.nic.cz/redmine/projects/bird/wiki/BGP_filtering (it is down right now, but you can use google cache to still see it) for the two /29 IP networks I have, one from Cogent, one from HE. I also have a /22 that I am announcing over BGP. The end result is to have a BGP router using two connections to announce my /22 using my ASN, from the bird router I need to be able to send out requests from my /22 over both interfaces (I have them weighted in the bird config file so one gets more traffic). I guess what I am asking is if this sounds like it is the correct setup? I don't need someone to babysit me through the whole process, I just want to make sure I'm not going down a rabbit hole and completely missing something. I'll be done with bugging the whole list now. If I could get a confirmation still that that is the correct route to take, that would be great. Setting up 2 routing tables like the first article, and then setting up bird like the BGP filtering article. I just didn't know if I should be setting up the 2 routing tables, or if the decision on the outbound routing was entirely bird. If anyone wanted to help more and contact me directly I could provide more specific information as well, but that's not required, and I don't want to be any trouble to the group in general.

You are probably running into a combination of your default route pointing out your existing provider and their strict uRPF blocking source IP's from your Cogent range. > I'm not sure if this is directly bird related, but I think it is... Any > tips or ideas would be greatly appreciated. This is not bird related. If you want this to work you need to route packets with a Cogent source IP out via your Cogent link. For that you'll need to do some policy based routing using the source IP as the filter. e.g. http://muchtall.com/2007/08/06/24/ cheers Marty
