Hm, I'm trying to understand this, while reading the documentation: show route [[for] prefix|IP] [table sym] [filter f|where c] [(export|preexport) p] [protocol p] [options] * Show contents of a routing table (by default of the main one) * The export and preexport switches ask for printing of entries that are exported to the specified protocol. But there are no entries from table master exported to nix1_nix. I don't mean to bother you with all my questions, I'm interested to understand how bird works, and I guess I should stop here and start reading the C code instead. >:) -- Hans van Kranenburg - System / Network Engineer T +31 (0)10 2760434 | hans.van.kranenb...@mendix.com | www.mendix.com
