Hello
Is there any specific reason for "ip6_rt_max_size" being set to 4096 by
default?
static int ip6_route_net_init(struct net *net
{
..
net->ipv6.sysctl.ip6_rt_max_size = 4096;
}
If not is there any chance of considering dropping it?
It's not causing problems for "normal" users but it is a common problem
among people running IPv6 routers now that the global routing table has
grown above 4096 prefixes.
Especially because there's no warming or similar when you hit the maximum.
Sincerely,
Sebastian H
