Subject: [PATCH] iproute: Add route showdump command
Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2012 12:53:39 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <50110593.1070502@parallels.com> (raw)
Some time ago the save+restore commands were added to ip route (git
id f4ff11e3, Add ip route save/restore). These two save the raw rtnl
stream into a file and restore one (reading it from stdin).
The problem is that there's no way to get the contents of the dump
file in a human readable form. How about adding a command that reads
the rtnl stream from stdin and prints the data in a way the usual
"ip route list" does?
