This series adds the ability to have the Linux kernel track whether or
not a particular route should be used based on the link-status of the
interface associated with the next-hop.
Before this patch any link-failure on an interface that was serving as a
gateway for some systems could result in those systems being isolated
from the rest of the network as the stack would continue to attempt to
send frames out of an interface that is actually linked-down. When the
kernel is responsible for all forwarding, it should also be responsible
for taking action when the traffic can no longer be forwarded -- there
is no real need to outsource link-monitoring to userspace anymore.
This feature is only enabled with the new per-interface or ipv4 global
sysctls called 'ignore_routes_with_linkdown'.
net.ipv4.conf.all.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
net.ipv4.conf.default.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
net.ipv4.conf.lo.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
...
Sorry for my late reply, but is it possible to advertise this sysctl via the
netconf infra (grep NETCONFA_)?
Regards,
Nicolas
