I am confused about the route scope parameter in the output if /sbin/ip route.
default via 10.32.10.1 dev wlan0 proto static 10.32.10.0/24 dev wlan0 proto kernel scope link src 10.32.10.154 metric 9 169.254.0.0/16 dev wlan0 scope link metric 1000 I understand what an IP address's scope is and the reasoning behind it; however, why do you need scope for a route as well? This seems redundant as any route with no gateway for a subnet is link-local. Am I missing something here?
