OSPFv3 and logging (debug)

[Dmitry S. Nikolaev]

Hello

You say about replacing in bird or bird6 ?

if in bird6 than it does not help in my case, because router id is also
the same as ip`s:

Router ID       Pri          State      DTime   Interface  Router IP
1.1.1.1   1         full/ptp    00:30   ng1        fe80::224:1dff:feb3:720
1.1.1.1   1         full/ptp    00:29   ng2        fe80::224:1dff:feb3:720
1.1.1.1   1         full/ptp    00:30   ng0        fe80::224:1dff:feb3:720


Thanks for your reply Ondrej.
i don`t know "c" code as good as you, easier to say i don`t know "c" at all.
you are you're talking about this string in bgp.c ?
log(L_ERR "%s: Invalid remote address %I%J", p->p.name, cf->remote_ip,
cf->iface);
It is doubtful that I can by myself make patch proto/ospf/neighbor.c for
right use of cf->iface in neigh_chstate() function.

With best regards, Dmitry S. Nikolaev
