--- Comment #1 from Alexander V. Chernikov <melifaro@FreeBSD.org> ---
IIRC gateway value is simply ignored in GENERIC kernel - the only thing that
code checks is the prefix.

This part has been changed in 13 - if a gateway is specified, then the route
gateway(s) are checked for the match.

I agree that 12 behaviour may look weird, however, that's what existed
historically.=20

I'm not sure if we can change it in FreeBSD 12, as we need to preserve
compatibility any people may rely on this behaviour.


Re interface route: could you please clarify what do you think should be the
expected behaviour?
