| + | While I was at it, I fixed routing to work properly when a netdev is specified, which should help on multi-homed systems connected to two+ unique networked segments (ie, one prefix per NIC). | ||
| + | |||
| + | I also fixed the formatting for the router advertisement handle function, which had a mix of hard tabs and spaces, each at different tab stops. | ||
