Intention of the patches was to support more scenarios like a default route
in the main table.
As the patches currently break some other scenarios it will need some
further tweaking.
The main issue is the nw rule; therefore I would like to understand which
scenario the nw rule is covering before just reverting to the "old" nw rule
implementation.
If no route is hit in the main routing table the traffic will also be
returned on the wan interface in case of the "old" nw rule implementation;
so i'm wondering if this rule is ever hit in a scenario
The iif lo rule stuff was originally added to fix a kernel issue; but since
it's used in other scenarios they can be re-added again after the main
table lookup .
Meanwhile I will do some further tweaking and testing with the different
scenarios in mind.
