Bird is a commonly used BGP daemon. This page provides configuration and help to run Bird for dn42.
Compared to quagga, bird supports multiple routing tables, which is useful, if you also plan to peer with other federated networks such as freifunk. In the following a working configuration for dn42 is shown. If you
want to learn the practical details behind routing protocols in bird, see the following [guide](https://github.com/knorrie/network-examples)
# Debian
In the Debian release cycle the bird packages may become outdated at times, if that is the case you should use the official bird package repository maintained by the developers of nic.cz.
This is not necessary for Debian Stretch, which currently ships the most recent version (1.6.3) in this repositories.
```sh
echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-backports main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/buster-backports.list
apt update
apt install bird
```
# Example configuration
Note: This file covers the configuration of Bird 1.x. For an example configuration of Bird 2.x see [howto/Bird2](/howto/Bird2)
* Replace `<AS>` with your Autonomous System Number (only the digits)
* Replace `<GATEWAY_IP>` with your gateway ip (the internal dn42 ip address you use on the host, where dn42 is running)
* Replace `<SUBNET>` with your registered dn42 subnet
* Replace `<PEER_IP>` with the ip of your peer who is connected with you using your favorite vpn protocol (openvpn, ipsec, tinc, ...)
* Replace `<PEER_AS>` the Autonomous System Number of your peer (only the digits)
* Replace `<PEER_NAME>` a self chosen name for your peer

# Bird communities
Communities can be used to prioritize traffic based on different flags, in DN42 we are using communities to prioritize based on latency, bandwidth and encryption. It is really easy to get started with communities and we encourage all of you to get the basic configuration done and to mark your peerings with the correct flags for improved routing.
More information can be found [here](/howto/Bird-communities).
# Route Origin Authorization
Route Origin Authorizations should be used in BIRD to authenticate prefix announcements. These check the originating AS and validate that they are allowed to advertise a prefix.
## ROA Tables
The ROA table can be generated from the registry directly or you can use the following pre-built ROA tables for BIRD:
ROA files generated by [dn42regsrv](https://git.dn42.dev/burble/dn42regsrv) are available from burble.dn42:
|URL|&nbsp;IPv4/IPv6&nbsp;|Description|
|---|---|---|
|[https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_46.json](https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_46.json) &nbsp; | &nbsp;Both&nbsp; | JSON format for use with RPKI |
|[https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird1_46.conf](https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird1_46.conf) &nbsp; | &nbsp;Both&nbsp; | Bird1 format |
|[https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird1_4.conf](https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird1_4.conf) &nbsp; | &nbsp;IPv4 Only&nbsp; | Bird1 format |
|[https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird1_6.conf](https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird1_6.conf) &nbsp; | &nbsp;IPv6 Only&nbsp; | Bird1 format |
|[https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird2_46.conf](https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird2_46.conf) &nbsp; | &nbsp;Both&nbsp; | Bird2 format |
|[https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird2_4.conf](https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird2_4.conf) &nbsp; | &nbsp;IPv4 Only&nbsp; | Bird2 format |

### Updating ROA tables
You can add cron entries to periodically update the tables:
```
*/15 * * * * curl -sfSLR {-o,-z}/var/lib/bird/bird6_roa_dn42.conf https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird1_6.conf && chronic birdc6 configure
*/15 * * * * curl -sfSLR {-o,-z}/var/lib/bird/bird_roa_dn42.conf https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird1_4.conf && chronic birdc configure
```
Debian version:
```
*/15 * * * * curl -sfSLR -o/var/lib/bird/bird6_roa_dn42.conf -z/var/lib/bird/bird6_roa_dn42.conf https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird1_6.conf && /usr/sbin/birdc6 configure
*/15 * * * * curl -sfSLR -o/var/lib/bird/bird_roa_dn42.conf -z/var/lib/bird/bird_roa_dn42.conf https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_bird1_4.conf && /usr/sbin/birdc configure
```
then create the directory to make sure curls can save the files:
```
mkdir -p /var/lib/bird/
```
### Use RPKI ROA for bird2
* Download gortr
`https://github.com/cloudflare/gortr/releases`
* Run gortr,need golang environment.
```
./gortr -verify=false -checktime=false -cache=https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_46.json
```
* run with docker
`docker pull cloudflare/gortr`
```
docker run --name dn42rpki -p 8282:8282 --restart=always -d cloudflare/gortr -verify=false -checktime=false -cache=https://dn42.burble.com/roa/dn42_roa_46.json
```
* Add this to your bird configure file,other ROA protocol must removed.
```
protocol rpki rpki_dn42{
roa4 { table dn42_roa; };
roa6 { table dn42_roa_v6; };
remote "<your rpki server ip or domain>" port 8282;
retry keep 90;
refresh keep 900;
expire keep 172800;
}
```
## Filter configuration
In your import filter add the following to reject invalid routes:
```
if (roa_check(dn42_roa, net, bgp_path.last) != ROA_VALID) then {
print "[dn42] ROA check failed for ", net, " ASN ", bgp_path.last;
reject;
}
```
Also, define your ROA table with:
```
roa table dn42_roa {
include "/var/lib/bird/bird_roa_dn42.conf";
};
```
**NOTE**: Make sure you setup ROA checks for both bird and bird6 (for IPv6).
