has been resolved:\n\nnexthop: Forbid FDB status change while nexthop is in a group\n\nThe kernel forbids the creation of non-FDB nexthop groups with FDB\nnexthops:\n\n # ip nexthop add id 1 via 192.0.2.1 fdb\n # ip nexthop add id 2 group 1\n Error: Non FDB nexthop group cannot have fdb nexthops.\n\nAnd vice versa:\n\n # ip nexthop add id 3 via 192.0.2.2 dev dummy1\n # ip nexthop add id 4 group 3 fdb\n Error: FDB nexthop group can only have fdb nexthops.\n\nHowever, as long as no routes are pointing to a non-FDB nexthop group,\nthe kernel allows changing the type of a nexthop from FDB to non-FDB and\nvice versa:\n\n # ip nexthop add id 5 via 192.0.2.2 dev dummy1\n # ip nexthop add id 6 group 5\n # ip nexthop replace id 5 via 192.0.2.2 fdb\n # echo $?\n 0\n\nThis configuration is invalid and can result in a NPD [1] since FDB\nnexthops are not associated with a nexthop device:\n\n # ip route add 198.51.100.1/32 nhid 6\n # ping 198.51.100.1\n\nFix by preventing nexthop FDB status change while the nexthop is in a\ngroup:\n\n # ip nexthop add id 7 via 192.0.2.2 dev dummy1\n # ip nexthop add id 8 group 7\n # ip nexthop replace id 7 via 192.0.2.2 fdb\n Error: Cannot change
