Missing prefix-list and access-list option from ipv6 route-map
Closed, ResolvedPublicFEATURE REQUEST

Description

Hi,

For ipv4 you have the following option in route-map:
set policy route-map test rule 10 match ip nexthop
-access-list
-prefix-list

For ipv6, you only have this:
set policy route-map test rule 10 match ipv6 nexthop
-ipv6 address
possible completion is only ipv6 address no access-list or prefix-list

This apply for all 1.3 or 1.4 versions

FRR doesn't support it.

r4-epa2(config)# route-map FOO permit 10
r4-epa2(config-route-map)# match ipv6 next-hop 
  X:X::X:X  IPv6 address of next hop
  type      Match entries by type

Already implemented in FRR 8.x, so for first, we should migrate to FRR 8.x if it is possible T3753

Thank you! I can't wait for it to be implemented 💃

Hi,

I have tested with vyos-1.4-rolling-202111281249 and is still missing, I can confirm that the frr version is 8.1.

Thanks

Still the same on vyos-1.4-rolling-202201020317-amd64.iso

@egoistdream Just check when this feature was merged. It was implemented in FRR 24th of November, but the latest FRR release was 9th of November
https://frrouting.org/release/8.1/

So you won't see this feature in 8.1

Hi,

FRRouting Release 8.2.2 was relased, when we will see this implemented?

Thank you!

Hi @egoistdream

We've added this feature in our latest nightly building release, could you check it ?

Hi @fernando

I just check and on version: vyos-1.4-rolling-202205310217 is still missing :(

Regards

yes, it was added on this version vyos-1.4-rolling-202205311706, please check again

thanks

Hi @fernando

Yes on this version it is available the requested options for ipv6:

-access-list
-prefix-list

But now you have different options again:

For ipv4:

set policy route-map test rule 10 match ip nexthop
-access-list
-address
-prefix-len
-prefix-list
-type

for IPv6
set policy route-map test rule 10 match ipv6 nexthop
-access-list
-address
-prefix-list

I think the same options should be implemented for both ipv4 and ipv6 as long as they have the same functionality.

Thank you

Closed for 1.3 too, because FRR version used in 1.3 doesn't support the feature

We will not update FRR to 8.x for 1.3 LTS releases.
