Detailed Description

1) Translating Routing Table Names

 // libnl is only aware of the de facto standard routing table names.
 // Additional name <-> identifier associations have to be read in via
 // a configuration file, f.e. /etc/iproute2/rt_tables
 err = rtnl_route_read_table_names("/etc/iproute2/rt_tables");

 // Translating a table name to its idenfier
 int table = rtnl_route_str2table("main");

 // ... and the other way around.
 char buf[32];
 printf("Name: %s\n",
        rtnl_route_table2str(table, buf, sizeof(buf)));
