Subject: How to enable more than ~256 routing tables?
Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2003 00:10:53 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3EA4EAFD.5020808@candelatech.com> (raw)

I would like to have a routing table per interface, and would like to support
1k interfaces or so (virtual interfaces like vlans, for instance).

I notice in rtnetlink.h there is this code:

enum rt_class_t
{
	RT_TABLE_UNSPEC=0,
/* User defined values */
	RT_TABLE_DEFAULT=253,
	RT_TABLE_MAIN=254,
	RT_TABLE_LOCAL=255
};
#define RT_TABLE_MAX RT_TABLE_LOCAL


Is it possible to just change the RT_TABLE_MAX to be higher and have 256-????
be more /* User defined values */ ?

Thanks,
Ben
