Overview
IPv6 address labels are used for address selection; they are described in RFC 3484. Precedence is managed by userspace, and only the label itself is stored in the kernel.
ip addrlabel add - add an address label
add an address label entry to the kernel.
prefixPREFIX
devDEV-
the outgoing interface.
labelNUMBER-
the label for the prefix. 0xffffffff is reserved.
ip addrlabel del - delete an address label
delete an address label entry from the kernel. Arguments: coincide with the arguments of ip addrlabel add but the label is not required.
ip addrlabel list - list address labels
list the current address label entries in the kernel.
ip addrlabel flush - flush address labels
flush all address labels in the kernel. This does not restore any default settings.
