Subject: [PATCH iproute2] gre: Fix ttl inherit option
Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2017 11:16:21 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1511867781-11592-1-git-send-email-robertshearman@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Robert Shearman <rs823p@att.com>
Specifying "... ttl inherit" currently does nothing on a GRE link
modify since the previous ttl value is retrieved up front. Fix this by
explicitly setting ttl to 0 when "inherit" is specified for the
option, since 0 represents the semantics of inherit.
