Hi,
I have 2 interfaces - one for adsl and other for LAN on my Linux gateway 
machine. The IP addresses are 10.10.10.3 & 192.168.10.101 respectively.  
Now my routing tables show this particular entry.  What exactly is this?

169.254.0.0/16 dev eth0  scope link

Or by traditional route -n,
169.254.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.0.0    U   0  0  0 eth0

What exactly is this 169.254.0.0/16 thing?

Thanks in advance.
With warm regards,
-Payal
