I'm a little bit confused. RAs are supposed to be ignored by routers -- the RFCs are very clear on that. Linux obeys the RFCs, it will disable accept_ra when forwarding is set on an interface. Now there's a race condition -- if the RA was accepted before the routing daemon set the forwarding knob, then the default route will remain. However, it will not be renewed -- when the RA expires, you'll lose your default route. The workaround to this race condition is to have the routing daemon ignore RA-originated routes. This is traditionally done by making such routes RTPROT_BOOT and ignoring such routes in the routing daemon (and installing routing-protocol-originated routes with a lower metric). So am I'm confused, or is marking RA-originated routes as anything else than RTPROT_BOOT exactly the wrong thing to do? -- Juliusz _______________________________________________ Cerowrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
