Thank you. That is great. How do I interpret the output of
#cat /proc/net/atalk_route
Target Router Flages Dev
0192:01 0000:00 5 lo
4F23:00 1964:9F 3 eth0
0192:00 0192:01 1 eth1
1964:95 0000:00 5 lo
1964:00 1964:95 1 eth0
0000:00 0000:00 5 lo
Is Target for network number? How many routers are there totally? Are there
two routers on eth0, which one is my? Is Flages for hop count?
Since I am testing atalk and need to restart atalk sometimes, I want to know
if there are other routers running on eth0 side before I restart atalk. I
don't want my atalk to be the last router on the network to shutdown and
all the macs on eth0 side have no router to fall back on. Thank you again.
