Re: Next-hop check not needed?

The patch looks fine, but there is one conceptual problem - onlink flag is not really property of a route, but property of a next hop, so your patch is incompatible with ECMP. Unfortunately, we currently do not have similar flexile attribute mechanism for per-next-hop data.

Understood. Fortunately, in my case, those routes are not really needed locally, so I can just filter them and announce them only over BGP. Thanks for the help. -- Localise input and output in subroutines. - The Elements of Programming Style (Kernighan & Plauger)
