I was ashamed of myself for much confused. My simple story is:

        rt1 ---- rt2 ---- mybox

rt1 is far from rt2 and when I changed bandwith between rt1 and rt2,
I want to confirm if it was changed correctly. A idea occured to me
is using lsrr. Then I tried with nc but it was not worked. To accept
packet from rt2 to mybox which src and dst address are mybox, I
changed:

                goto last_resort;
-       if (res.type != RTN_UNICAST)
+       if (res.type != RTN_UNICAST && likely(res.type != RTN_LOCAL))
                goto e_inval_res;
        *spec_dst = FIB_RES_PREFSRC(res);
        fib_combine_itag(itag, &res);

Would you tell me is this acceptable? I'm afraid of security issue.
thanks,
