Hi All:
When I tested linux kernel 2.6.18.3, and find that kernel statistics
about IPSTATS_MIB_OUTNOROUTES which exsits in file /proc/net/snmp
doesn't increase correctly. The criteria conform to RFC2011:
ipOutNoRoutes OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX Counter32
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The number of IP datagrams discarded because no route could
be found to transmit them to their destination. Note that
this counter includes any packets counted in ipForwDatagrams
which meet this `no-route' criterion. Note that this
includes any datagrams which a host cannot route because all
of its default routers are down."
::= { ip 12 }
When a host received an IP packet, but the destination address is not
this host. The kernel just discards the IP packet but with no increment
for this counter.
When a router received an IP packet that this router can't forward due
to no route found. Kernel just simply invoke ip_error(), and send ICMP
packet. Also do nothing for this counter.
