Got it, thank you! (I've not used filters for anything up to this
point)  This will be very helpful for another issue issue I see
coming.

Is it possible to replace `1.2.3.4` with something that will
dynamically read the address from a specific address?  E.G.
ket_prefsrc = `ip of dummy0`

I didn't see anything reading the documentation, but I thought I'd
ask.  ( right now the bird.conf file on all the machines is the same,
and its been nice :p )
