A local route may have a lower hop_limit set than global routes do. RFC 3756, Section 4.2.7, "Parameter Spoofing" > 1. The attacker includes a Current Hop Limit of one or another small > number which the attacker knows will cause legitimate packets to > be dropped before they reach their destination. > As an example, one possible approach to mitigate this threat is to > ignore very small hop limits. The nodes could implement a > configurable minimum hop limit, and ignore attempts to set it below > said limit. Signed-off-by:
