Closing remarks and the solution of the problem: We can conclude that *using 169.254.x.x for routed networks is not in accordance with standards.* According to the standards the router shouldn't forward such packages (from 169.254.x.x network) and even the client shouldn't send such packages

Hello, thanks for fast answer and suggestions. 1) General is the wrong package for this bug. (i assume it's going to get closed, network-manager or ifupdown are probably a better idea). I don't know which one and I'm not sure if it is not somethink else. I haven't found anything like this in
