Hi All, while cretaing rules via NETLINK, I observed not (well) documented in rtnetlink(7) behaviour.
If I created rule using RTM_NEWRULE message, I'm able to provide RTA_DST attribute with destination IP (setting up rtmsg.dst_len to the appropriate value). Such message to NETLINK provides to creating following rules: #ip ru sh ... 19999: from 10.0.0.1 to 10.10.0.11 lookup 19 ... So, could you please tell: -can I count on this behaviour in future linux kernels? -which additional attributes can be also passed? I tried RTA_IIF/RTA_OIF and it looks like it works too. -is there any way to debug how kernel choose rules? Thanks in advance, Vasily. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
