I’m not really sure whether this is the right forum to discuss in, but I’ve a question regarding NetworkManager since Rocky Linux 9 uses it. I’m in the middle of creating a POC for a cloud platform which needs BGP+EVPN for VXLAN. For this I wanted to go for FRR as the routing daemon. However, when setting up a simple OSPF network, I’m noticing that the loopbacks that we’re announcing is marked as inactive.
Further discussion in a subreddit, looks like it’s because NetworkManager automatically applied the noprefixroute
flag to interfaces managed by it. This makes the route not being installed as connected in FRR. Refer here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=291329. TLDR, is there a way to configure NetworkManager to NOT applies the flag to interfaces it manage?
Wanted to go with systemd-networkd path but seems like it’s not installed by default in Rocky Linux 9.
Thanks for all the help
