.The `initscripts` network provider supports route metric configuration of the default gateway With this update, you can use the `initscripts` network provider in the `rhel-system-roles.network` RHEL System Role to configure the route metric of the default gateway. The reasons for such a configuration could be: * Distributing the traffic load across the different paths * Specifying primary routes and backup routes * Leveraging routing policies to send traffic to specific destinations through specific paths

Possibilities are:


    tests_auto_gateway_initscripts.yml
    tests_bond_initscripts.yml

Sorry please ignore that link. Though I do have the same question for that bug as well.

Comment 5 Rich Megginson 2022-12-09 00:24:11 UTC
From the PR for this BZ - https://github.com/linux-system-roles/network/pull/532/files

looks like the test is tests_auto_gateway_initscripts.yml

@nm-team please confirm

I confirm, the test is `tests_auto_gateway_initscripts.yml`. Originally,`tests_auto_gateway_initscripts.yml` causes the baseos ci hang, then set a higher route metric for the default route will make sure other default routes not being hijacked and preserve the ssh connectivity as a result.
