Problem is the normal network scripts use ifconfig and route.
In my tests I did a simple setup script.
Feel like I am reinventing the wheel :-)
Is it OK to use the network scripts to setup the interface and then remove the routes ifconfig created and add any needed routes with ip commands?
Or am I best setting up the connections from scratch?
Also related is some of interfaces are dynamic.
I ran rewrite dhclient-script or just rebuild routes in dhclient-exit-hooks.d.
Also dhcpd-script gives new_subnet_mask=......... new_ip_address=.... new_network_number=...... interface=eth2
But for ip route need the length part of new_network_number/length
Is there a simple way to calculate length from new_subnet_mask ?
Thanks
