Re: Bug#643805: linux-image-3.0.0-1-686-pae: ipv4/conf/all/* entries do not work in /proc/sys/net/

[Alexandre Chapellon <a.chapellon@horoa.net>]

Any news about this issue.
The problems remains identical here:

echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/send_redirects
Do not set the send_redirects (same problem on client machine with 
accept_redirects) of existing interfaces to 0

Furthermore I have tried setting 
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/default/send_redirects=0 in sysctl.conf to 
prohibit gateway from sending thoose icmp redirects but interfaces 
defined in /etc/network/interfaces (in my case a bridge) have 
send_redirect=1 after boot completes. Which leads me to think that procs 
is executed after networking has been setup... and should not.

One more things. On client machine I have the following when try to get 
the route:
ip r g 172.20.0.10
172.20.0.10 via 172.17.2.1 dev wlan0  src 172.17.2.65
    cache <redirected>  ipid 0x23f0
I haven't found a way to get rid of that "redirected" route, except 
reboot (even by flushing iproute2 cache). How can I get remove such a route?

Regards.
