Dear Volodymyr,

> default via 192.168.2.1 dev eth0.2 proto static

If you look at /etc/iproute2/rt_protos, you will see that "proto static"
is a protocol number of 4.  Now your redistribution rule says:

    option 'proto' '3'

This says that only routes with "proto boot" are redistributed.  The rule is:

  - if proto is specified, then only routes with the given proto are
    redistributed;
  - if proto is not specified, then all routes *except* the ones with
    proto 3 (boot) are redistributed.

All of this is documented in the babeld manual page.

In your case, it should be enough to remove the line that specifies
"proto", and your static routes should get redistributed.

Please let us know (on list) whether it works for you.

Regards,

-- Juliusz
