Some devices (Junos, BIRD) need a default route in the routing table to originate a BGP default route. To simplify the configuration templates, the bgp.session plugin adds the necessary static routes and activates the 'routing' module on the affected node(s).

Working:

  • Global and VRF static routes are added
  • Deduplication of added static routes

Still missing:

  • Dual-stack/IPv6 checks
  • Using existing defaults
