 Please, couldn't you summarize the meaning of "onlink" option? Is it
necessary or could I remove it in my multipath setting? See my former
posts; basically it's a default route with two nexthops for traffic
balancing between them:

 linux balancer --> gatewayY
(192.168.0.1)       (192.168.5.Y)

(where Y= 1, 2)

 Balancer as well as gateway's are all connected to the same switch.

 Hi.

 Would someone be so kind to explain "onlink" option to me? Upon
reading "ip command" ref.man. I still don't understand what this
option is intended for. A example where this option may be useful
would be appreciated.

 Regards.
