Re: how does curl-loader use RTNETLINK

[Javier M. <jam...@in...>]

Ok, thanks for your fast reply!
However, It would be useful that the loader, once when it has
finished, could close or delete the secondary ip that assigns to the
interface.
Additionally, it would be very helpul for me if you tell me how the
loader allocates those directions and more especifically, how the
server knows where to send back the responses to the virtual clients,
since i have manually ping'ed the clients from the server without no
response.
Sincerely,
