Look under just RTNETLINK, it allows the kernel's routing tables to be read and altered. It is used within the kernel to communicate between various subsystems, though this usage is not documented here, and for communication with user-space programs. Network routes, ip addresses, link parameters, neighbour setups, queueing disciplines, traffic classes and packet classifiers may all be controlled through NETLINK_ROUTE sockets. It is based on netlink messages, see netlink(7) for more information. Verbatim from the manpage.

I couldn't find any Help in make menuconfig or make xconfig, on Red Hat 7.3, nor in any of its documentation.
