Subject: gateway field missing in netlink message

Hi

I am trying to configure dual gateways with ip route command.

Ip route show command shows the dual gateway information.

I got a vpp stack that is running. The communication of route entries between Linux kernel and vpp stack is through netlink messages.

On parsing the netlink message for the route entry with dual gateways, we see that the message carries only single gateway. Is this a known bug ? Please suggest a solution to resolve this.

Regards
