## Important information for users of bird 2.0
Version 2.0 of bird was released on 2017-12-11. Since this version introcuces a new handling of IPv4 and IPv6 protocols (channels) bird_export does not support this version yet. There will be a version 1.1 in the next days which will introduce support for the new channel feature.
Version 2.0 of bird routing daemon does support IPv4 and IPv6 in one single daemon now.
For further information see [here](https://gitlab.labs.nic.cz/labs/bird/wikis/transition-notes-to-bird-2).
Since version 1.1 bird_exporter can be used with bird 2.0+ using the `-bird.v2` parameter.
When using this parameter bird_exporter only queries one bird socket for IPv4 and IPv6.
In this mode the IP protocol is determined by the channel information and parameters `-bird.ipv4`, `-bird.ipv6` and `-bird.socket6` are ignored.
## Metric formats
In version 1.0 a new metric format was introduced.
