Hello all,
I'm writing a routing protocol daemon and need to know which routes
are inserted by this daemon. I use rtnetlink rtm_protocol with some
RTPROT_* value to mark the routes.
It seems that IPv6 stack returns a type but it's implicitly determined
from some flag values and is one of only RTPROT_BOOT, RTPROT_REDIRECT,
RTPROT_RA or RTPROT_KERNEL (linux/net/ipv6/route.c: rt6_fill_node()).
As far as I can tell linux does not store routing protocol value
(RTPROT_*) for IPv6 routes. If I'm correct, why is it so?
Regards,
Antti
