When converting the other router to bird, you can also configure it to
just use the /24 ranges in the context of talking to the ebgp peer, and
never let them come near the t_bgp or even master table, so you don't
need the additional filters to keep them out again.

Why would a route with target 'reject' not be added to the kernel table
if you export the route to it?
