Well, there is not much difference for singlehop and multihop iBGP, essentially just TTL, waiting for interface/prefix to start and immediate shutdown when interface/prefix disappears. It is true that multihop default is probably more natural for iBGP, but in BIRD, singlehop/multihop setting is independent of iBGP/eBGP. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'SanTiago' Zajicek (email: [email protected]) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
