From 70148ce5be9844ba0e3c8112fb0117689c1bfca0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefano Brivio Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2023 19:23:18 +0100 Subject: conf, passt.h: Rename "outbound" interface to "template" interface In preparation for the next patch, make it clear that the first routable interface fetched via netlink, or the one configured via -i/--interface, is simply used as template to copy addresses and routes, not an interface we actually use to derive the source address (which will be _bound to_) for outgoing packets. The man page and usage message appear to be already clear enough.
