[question] Routes and IP Forwarding tests: features definition

[gut]

As requested on the network tests: Ensure routes are added when enabling IP Forwarding (TBD, this may expand out).

What would you say that it'd be interesting to test? Only the simple case of having a packet forward to the other interface of a machine with 2 network cards?

Edit: I think I got it wrong. The GCE means to use it differently: https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/alias-ip and https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/using-routes . So it can be used as a machine accepting different IPs for different services (even with a single network card). Routing has to be done correctly or else these packages will never reach the correct machine.

Do you have more ideas regarding the "this may expand out"?

Those are the two cases that exist now. Using alias IP's and routes (usually via a load balancer). https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/load-balancing/network/forwarding-rules

For the time being, just focus on these cases.

Alright. Thanks
