BIRD 1.3.11 (ports) on FreeBSD 9.1-p7 :: Additional information

[Markus Grundmann]

Hi!

The host is running up to two VirtualBox instances with the IP addresses
8X.2X.32.197 and .195
Both VMs are running BIRD 1.3.11 with OSPFv2. When I use OSPFv3 on all
neighbors the trouble is more bigger ("LSA disappeared" messages).

The server with IP .211 running BIRD 1.3.11. All OSPF neighbors have a
Cisco IOS based OSPF neighbor with OSPFv2 and OSPFv3. I hope this are
enough information about my environment. Formerly the servers working
with Quagga and I have not any issues with ARP and OSPF. Interface "re0"
has two VLANs. VLAN2 has multiple IPs in the same network.
