Hi,

I have an alias ip addresses issue on 1.6.2. Here is what it's 
configured:

10.10.0.2/24 as primary address on tlp0
10.12.0.2/24 as secondary(alias) address on tlp0

I've made some tests in order to see the source address used to reach 
10.12.0.1 (on the alias segment). Although the route is directly 
connected to this interface via its alias, the alias is never used to 
reach 10.12.0.1 but, instead, 10.10.0.2 is used (even for ping -I 
10.12.0.2 and traceroute -s 10.12.0.2). Is this the normal behaivior ? 
IMHO, the alias address should be used as 10.10.0.2 should connect to 
10.12.0.0/24 only via default-gateway.

Any oppinion is appreciated,
