Hi misc,

I've run into the maximum rdomain/rtable limit recently (255). Looks to be an 8bit field limitation. The virtual network model I am using atmo assigns interfaces with the rdomain ID being part of the interface name.

Example: rdomain 50, vport50, veb50. This logical naming works great for readability everywhere.
The interface numbering can already scale well beyond 255. Would there be any appetite to grow the rdomain limit to at least a 16bit field?

Best,
PT
