Subject: [PATCH iproute2 net-next v2 2/2] iplink_geneve: Add DF configuration
Date: Thu, 8 Nov 2018 12:21:26 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <e31b22f693cd91bebf16415ebbccb602b2649716.1541641480.git.sbrivio@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1541641480.git.sbrivio@redhat.com>
Allow to set the DF bit behaviour for outgoing IPv4 packets: it can be
always on, inherited from the inner header, or, by default, always off,
which is the current behaviour.
v2:
- Indicate in the man page what DF refers to, using RFC 791 wording
(David Ahern)
