Code: Select all
add-path-out=all|none
I wouldn't personally want development resources diverted away from BFD (the lack of it has already been beaten to death in the forums here, so that's all I'll say about it) but lacking additional paths support and a couple of key BGP knobs [1] make it difficult to use Mikrotik hardware in a lot of traditional BGP-speaking roles. My network is small enough that a full mesh of route reflectors per geographic region is almost as bad as a full mesh of AS-border routers. Lacking such a full mesh, add-path support, or something esoteric like BGP ORR, Mikrotik devices are be unable to pick appropriate in-region hot-potato exits and are therefore unsuitable for those roles.
I know people have been asking for years, but reiterating that it would be very helpful to customers for Mikrotik to provide a software feature roadmap for RouterOSv7 so that we have an idea of what to expect. There is this but it really is better at describing what is currently implemented rather than what is actually coming.
[1] I think easyswiss had it right in the previous thread:
I think Mikrotik doesn't know that as-override, remove-private-asn and add-path-out are the 3 most used bgp tools.
