Hello,
You redistributed 4.4.4.1/32, 5.5.5.1/32, 10.235.0.0/16 and 192.168.2.16/28
into BGP and BGP "daemon" needs to "define"/"construct" an ORIGIN attribute
for these routes before sending (ORIGIN is mandatory attribute so it must be
"attached" to BGP route). The reason You are seeing it every minute is due
to well-known BGP scanner process waking up once a minute.
In a short: these messages are harmless unless the debug is permanently on
which is bad for CPU utilization.
HTH,
Cheers
Alex
