Subject: iproute: Add support for ttl-propagation attribute
X-Git-Tag: v4.12.0~47^2~19
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c44d18ea96add9309ae72f9ca57dd534585de53b;p=thirdparty%2Fiproute2.git

iproute: Add support for ttl-propagation attribute

Add support for setting and displaying the ttl-propagation attribute
initially used by MPLS to control propagation of MPLS TTL to IPv4/IPv6
TTL/hop-limit on popping final label on a per-route basis.
