bird vs cisco/quagga

[Борис Коваленко]

Hello!

I'm newbie to bird. Used cisco/quagga before. But filter language of bird
is very nice, so I want to try it. But I have one big misunderstanding.
With other vendors each protocol has it own routing table. So OSPF may work
only with ospf prefixes, BGP with bgp and so on. If we need protocol to get
access to other routing tables there are redistribute XXX commands.

Unfortunatelly in bird there is one "super" table by default. So i get
sutiation where I have to prefixes on router, one from static protocol, and
one from ibgp. Prefix from ibgp has some communities on it, and I use this
communities in filters to ebgp. But static prefix always win. By some
reason I can't remove static prefix and use ibgp prefix and also can't add
communities to static prefix as they are changed by other router.

I guess that "standard" behaviour of Cisco/Quagga may be done with bird
too. May gurus tell me how to do this?

Regards,
Boris
