I'll have to study your suggested configuration and the pipe protocol
before trying to apply it in production, but it sure looks nice :)

Earlier today I had the following idea. Instead of specifying all static
routes in the same protocol, as I did before, couldn't I define two
instances and then filter based on the protocol name?

# Prefixes to be exported to BGP
procol static mynetworks {
  route a.b.c.0/24;
  route a.b.c.1/24;
}

# Route to the BGP peer
protocol static bgp_peer_route {
  route w.z.y.x/32 via w.z.y.1;
}

protocol kernel {
  scan time 20;
  export where proto = "bgp_peer_route";
}

This should work, right?

Thanks a lot,
Andre
