Package: iproute Version: 20100224-1 Severity: normal On a system with multiple NIC's to the same network, routing will lead to: (for example) 192.168.1.0/20 dev eth0 scope link 192.168.1.0/20 dev eth1 scope link
On Debian this correctly set up automatically using: $ route add -net 192.168.1.0/20 dev eth0 $ route add -net 192.168.1.0/20 dev eth1 But, when using ip to do the same, it fails after the first route: $ ip route add 192.168.1.0/20 dev eth0 scope link $ ip route add 192.168.1.0/20 dev eth1 scope link $ RTNETLINK answers: File exists This will also be a problem when a system is multihomed in multiple networks using the same ip adres ranges. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (300, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-thomas2 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages iproute depends on: ii libc6 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdb4.8 4.8.26-1 Berkeley v4.8 Database Libraries [ Versions of packages iproute recommends: ii libatm1 1:2.5.1-1.2 shared library for ATM (Asynchrono Versions of packages iproute suggests: pn iproute-doc <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
