Something did change on iproute2 side between 4.20 and 5.0, though: lion:~ # rpm -q iproute2 iproute2-4.20-0.x86_64 lion:~ # ip route show table default ; echo $? 0 lion:~ # ip route show table 123 ; echo $? 0 ... lion:~ # rpm -q iproute2 iproute2-5.0.0-0.x86_64 lion:~ # ip route show table default ; echo $? Error: ipv4: FIB table does not exist. Dump terminated 2 lion:~ # ip route show table 123 ; echo $? Error: ipv4: FIB table does not exist. Dump terminated 2 All I did was updating iproute2 package, the same kernel was running for both (I tried 5.0.3 and 5.1-rc1). Michal
