Hello, Does anybody knows where suh a code example which gets routing info according to the destination IP using GETROUTE netlink sockets can be found ?
I had spent time trying to write something which uses RTA_SRC and RTA_DST and got some problems. (I probably made something stupid.) I googled for such examples and did not get much. I saw that the zebra project and iproute uses netlinks but it is complex., TIA John On 4/25/06, Andi Kleen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tuesday 25 April 2006 16:44, John Que wrote: > > Thanks a lot ! > > > > I had tried the sending RTM_GETROUTE message using a NETLINK_ROUTE > > socket in a User Space program and it went OK. > > > > It gaves correct routing struct which I could parse. > > In fact it gave the rotuing table. > > But in sending that message I did not specify a certain > > dest IP. > > Consider the follwing simple scenario: I have 2 gateways > > (one on eth0,one on eth1), and I am sending > > a packet to some dest IP ; I want to know according to > > that ip on which interface (or gw) it will be out > > > > But where do I specify that certain dest IP ? > > You add RTA_SRC and RTA_DST attributes to the query. > > -Andi > - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
