Hey @mickvav, can you pick up this?

I think, I can. Need two things - url to docs to check semantics and readyness to test.

@afics can you collaborate with @mickvav on this issue
Thanks guys!

Well, it's somewhat more complicated than expected, but possible. I'll try do it today, but not 100% sure that I'll have enough time...

@afics I think keyword route is unnecessary in your suggested syntax - we have all options right under "set policy" tree. @syncer , @dmbaturin what will you say?

@mickvav On vRouter 5600, it would be like I posted. I vote for adding directly under policy.

I propose adding support for named extended-community-lists, see T64.

Well, looks like pre-alpha is here:


N.B. It's completely untested. And I can't test one as I have no working MPLS config for clean quagga.

B rocade vyatta.

@dmbaturin @syncer should we keep configuration syntax in sync with brocade?

Created pull request - https://github.com/vyos/vyatta-cfg-quagga/pull/9 to track changes, related to this ticket.

There are no obligations to follow brocade, however for compatibility probably have some sense.

- update - i've found minor bug.
May be we need some kind of lint-ing on scripts during package build process?

Steel need someone with known working quagga MPLS confgiuration to test. @afics ?

Actually merged year ago.

@dmbaturin tells that this does not work as expected
so i suggest reopen this task
