Hi,

I am experimenting with SHNCPD at the moment and wonder about a detail
in the Homenet prefix distribution to attached hosts.

Does HNCP somehow make sure that there is a route towards the prefix
it distributes? While D/HNCP checks that there is a path of links, the
routing protocol might decide that one of the links is too
unstable/slow for traffic and does not use it for routing.

What is the preferred way to deal with this situation?

Hm, there must be some preconception here that I do not understand.

Why would a routing protocol choose to decide not to use a "bad" link if there are no other alternatives available? Bad links should be avoided if there are better available, but if this is the only one available it should be used anyway?
