I am trying to make use of the Linux Advanced Routing/Policy routing feature
but I am running into a table limit. The RT_TABLE_MAX defaults to 255 but is
defined as an INTEGER. I need upwards of 500+ tables.
/include/linux/rtnetlink.h
/* Reserved table identifiers */
enum rt_class_t
{
RT_TABLE_UNSPEC=0,
/* User defined values */
RT_TABLE_DEFAULT=253,
RT_TABLE_MAIN=254,
RT_TABLE_LOCAL=255,
__RT_TABLE_MAX
};
#define RT_TABLE_MAX (__RT_TABLE_MAX - 1)
If I adjust __RT_TABLE_MAX to 1024, should this work or are there other limits
within the policy routing code that would limit it to 255 tables? I've been
changing code and testing with no success. I have also been recompiling the
iproute2 as it looks like the limit is compiled in there as well.
