Hi bird users,

I am currently experimenting with Bird 3.3.0 and EVPN. I do not need/want a
local termination, but want to inject static EVPN routes only.

Despite missing documentation (hint!), I found the necessary syntax to
define mac-ip and imet routes. I also managed to manually set the required
ext communities (tunnel type, MAC mobility, RT) as well as the VNI
(mpls_label) in the filter.

What remains open is the  bgp_pmsi_tunnel attribute. According to the
documentation it's not available in filters.

Is there any alternative way to statically set it? Maybe a custom attribute
and a binary string?

Thanks,
André
