<DIV><FONT face=Arial><BR><FONT size=2></FONT></FONT></DIV><FONT face=Arial
size=2>> Look under just RTNETLINK, it allows the kernel's routing tables to
be<BR>> read and altered. It is used within the kernel to communicate
between<BR>> various subsystems, though this usage is not documented here,
and for<BR>> communication with user-space programs. Network routes, ip
addresses,<BR>> link parameters, neighbour setups, queueing disciplines,
traffic classes<BR>> and packet classifiers may all be controlled through
NETLINK_ROUTE<BR>> sockets. It is based on netlink messages, see netlink(7)
for more<BR>> information. Verbatim from the manpage.<BR>> <BR>>
