When I run the below command, where is it stored? Or it remains in the memory until a reboot?
ip rule add from x.x.x.x table 1
I just wanted to use a custom name for IPV6 which would separate it from IPv4. So I gave table eth0V6
which threw an error,
Error: argument "eth0V6" is wrong: invalid table ID
But then it accepts table 1
and other numbers. So basically I wanted to check whether I need to create a file with custom name for the V6 route table and at which location. But couldn't find table 1
being updated anywhere at /etc/iproute2/
.
Some help would be appreciated.
