What do you do when an interface repairs and you look in the routing 
table and you don't find any targets?
The reason I'm asking is the if things are down for a while the routing 
daemon will have deleted all routes out that interface, and after a 
repair it will take a while for the routing daemon to rediscover which 
routes to add to the kernel.
