it's interesting to watch all of this having dealt recently with behvaior in an environment that expected

1) SLAAC/static ip 2) multiple default gateways, and then you import routes(including multiple default gateway's) over bgp and start BFD to figure out which one is active 3) and then you start broadcasting your own address over bgp

i wish there were a daemon in systemd, that i could configure to do this. It seems absurd to people that aren't aware of how it works, but it's quite the interesting flow in a datacenter.

wish there were an equivalent in the kubernetes/normal linux world, but i can understand the scalability concerns :)

I know BIRD exists, but i wish this was kind of built in ... lemme see if systemd supports extensions... it would be cool to add :)

i'm sure more people might want it.
