Hi,
I statically configured the routing table for a machine A to have a metric
of 3 to a destination B, using linux 'route' command. Then, I configured
another machine C to use A as the gateway to route to B, leaving the
metric to both A and B as 0.
I then ran routed on both A and C. However, I don't see the routing table
of C being updated. (I run route -n to check.) Shouldn't C get gratuitous
RIP packets from A and accordingly set its routing metric to current
metric to A + metric from A to B i.e. 0 + 3 = 3?
>From what I understand of the routed man page, this satisfies one of the
conditions for updating the kernel routing table, but the output of route
-n at C shows no change.
Could someone please help me out?
Thank you.
Regards,
Samarth.
