IP addresses assigning via Bird

[ZX]

Oh no if I start NetworkManager and exports the full table into the kernel,
the CPU booms on CentOS 7 and 8. Don't know why.

You can use nmcli instead of /etc/network/interfaces. It works like a charm.

The main reason why to not use system configuration from
/etc/network/interfaces is requirement to do down-up procedure with
interface which affects network traffic.
It is possible to IP addresses via "ip address ..." statement, however
this changes are not persistent. Doing it all doubly - changing
/etc/network/interfaces for persistent setting and then "ip address
..." for running machine can bring bugs and inconsistency. Bird config
file is tested before applying and it makes it safe and simple.
