We have tried some variations on modifications to ip rules, but the
kernel appears to treat rule 0 specially -- it cannot be deleted, for
example. This results in the enforcing of local interfaces before
source routes -- surely something that should be a policy decision, not
hard-coded.
Let me rephrase and ask: Does anyone know how to replace the priority 0
rule?
