I think we should head for a 16bit ifindex at some point
or is there any reason why 65K interfaces wouldn't be
sufficient?
I think we are locked into using "s32" for this.
I can definitely imagine virtual interfaces that could
tally into numbers far larger than 64K.
When these other changes go in, is there any chance that
we can get support for more than 256 routing tables? That
can help make all of these virtual interfaces more useful
for some of us with strange routing fetishes :)
