| 2 | You are not obliged to follow this format , but it would be |
| 3 | great help for Zebra developers if you report a bug as described |
| 4 | below. |
| 5 | |
| 6 | Send your report to bug-zebra@gnu.org mailing list. |
| 7 | |
| 8 | Please supply the following information: |
| 9 | 1. Your zebra version or if it is CVS version then the date you did checkout. |
| 10 | Always try to report the bugs on the current CVS version. |
| 11 | 2. Zebra daemons you run e.g. bgpd or ripd, your OS full name, |
| 12 | any specific options you compiled zebra with. |
| 13 | 3. Problem description. Copy and paste relative zebra commands and their |
| 14 | output to describe your network setup e.g. "zebra>show ip route". |
| 15 | Please, also give your simple network layout and output of relative OS commands |
| 16 | (e.g. ifconfig). |
| 17 | 4. All zebra configuration files you use. If you don't want to publish |
| 18 | your network numbers change 2 middle bytes in IPv4 address to be XXX e.g. |
| 19 | 192.XXX.XXX.32/24. Similar could be done with IPv6. |
| 20 | 5. If any zebra daemon core dumped, please, supply stack trace using |
| 21 | the following commands: host> gdb exec_file core_file , (gdb) bt . |
| 22 | 6. Run all zebra daemons with full debugging on (see documentation on debugging) and |
| 23 | send _only_ part of logs which are relative to your problem. |
| 24 | 7. If the problem is difficult to reproduce please send a shell script to |
| 25 | reproduce it. |
| 26 | 8. Patches, workarounds, fixes are always welcome. |
