[Xorp-users] importing BGP routes

[Andriy Beregovenko]

 I install xorp on my linux router, and i got some issue with
exporting routes from bgp to kernel.
 I have cisco router as bgp peer, and annonce only one route (for test).
On CISCO router:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
cisco-rtr>sh ip bgp nei 172.20.11.2 adv
BGP table version is 681, local router ID is 10.114.250.1
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i - internal,
              r RIB-failure, S Stale
Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete

   Network          Next Hop            Metric LocPrf Weight Path
*> 10.114.250.0/24  0.0.0.0                  0         32768 i

Total number of prefixes 1
cisco-rtr>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
And on xorp i recive this route:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
jet at linux-rtr# run show bgp routes
Status Codes: * valid route, > best route
Origin Codes: i IGP, e EGP, ? incomplete

   Prefix                Nexthop                    Peer            AS Path
   ------                -------                    ----            -------
*  10.114.250.0/24       172.20.11.1                10.114.250.1  65101 i
jet at linux-rtr#
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
But as you can see, this route is no best, and it do not inject into RIB.
While reading documentation, i understand that i must declare some
policy for exporting route from BGP to RIB, so i write policy and
apply it to peer:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
jet at linux-rtr# show policy policy-statement bgp_to_rib
    term 1 {
        from {
            protocol: "bgp"
        }
        then {
            accept {
            }
        }
    }
jet at linux-rtr# show protocols bgp peer 172.20.11.1
    local-ip: "172.20.11.2"
    as: "65101"
    next-hop: 172.20.11.2
>   import: "bgp_to_rib"

[edit]
jet at linux-rtr#
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
But then i trying to commit i recive error(in log):

Please help with this issue, because i can not find more info about
xorp configuration.
