The FIB looks good.

The `fib` of interface is for incoming packets. Every packet receiving on t=
hat
interface is tagged with that fib number.

The `tunnelfib` of tunnel interfaces is for outgoing encapsulated packets. =
When
those packets are leaving, a FIB with `tunnel fib number` is chose for rout=
ing.


>Is there a possible mixup ?

> A FIB fib_number is assigned to all packets to all packets encapsulated b=
y tunnel interface
I think the statement is somewhat confusing, it is more implementation
specific, but not user friendly.
