I don't believe that is quite right.  There is specific machinery in
the OS to enable ipv4-routing under some conditions when a specific
policy has not been specified by routeadm that will need to be
unwound; e.g., see "cmd/svc/milestone/net-routing-setup" where it
mentions "routeadm/ipv4-routing-set".


Cheers.

Hi!

Thanks all for your professional input to this topic.

WRT "should in.routed be enabled by default"

From my point of view of a Openindiana end user i think the 'default network topology' in a soho office is a bunch of network devices connected to an internet router which provides dhcp for all devices. I  enabled 'always same ip for this device' for some devices, and have some static ip adresses for a (sort of) fileserver, a sane server and a MFU printer. The workload for some IO users includes the use of virtualisation via virtualbox/bhyve and non-global-zones as these topics are key features for illumos-based systens. I think the use of nwam as default is very welcome, and can be changed by the user if needed.

So, the default for the default routing features 'needed' for this scenario should be enabled. If in.routed is not necessary, it should be disabled by default. If it is needed for virtualisation network to operate correctly (mostly  thinking of dhcp-enabled vm-clients) it should be enabled by default.

Nevertheless, the 'lost' network connection is not solved yet.

In my case of the 'lost' default gateway i am still thinking that it should not happen in either case of a running or not running in.routed daemon. I thought i had disabled the route yesterday but it is running (?). The 'history' shows that i disabled it at 19:55 yesterday. Maybe routing-setup did re-enable it at boot this morning..

$ svcs -a|grep rout
disabled        6:36:37 svc:/network/routing/ripng:default
disabled        6:36:37 svc:/network/routing/legacy-routing:ipv4
disabled        6:36:37 svc:/network/routing/legacy-routing:ipv6
disabled        6:36:37 svc:/network/routing/rdisc:default
online          6:36:40 svc:/network/routing-setup:default
online          6:36:40 svc:/network/routing/route:default
online          6:36:48 svc:/network/routing/ndp:default

I don't know the case details for Mr.Richardson right now and i am sorry for hijacking, but i use at least the same ethernet device i think (Ethernet Connection (5) I219-LM 8086:15e3).
