B #7691: loosen inherited ARP strictness in netns
to allow cross-subnet ARP replies.
Network namespaces can inherit strict ARP policies (where arp_ignore is greater than 0) from the host's default configurations. When this strictness is inherited, it breaks cross-subnet ARP resolution. Specifically, the namespace silently drops and fails to reply to the VM's cross-subnet ARP requests for local endpoints, such as the 169.254.16.9.
This PR explicitly loosens the inherited ARP strictness by forcing arp_ignore=0 inside the namespace. By applying this to both all and the specific interface, it guarantees the namespace will successfully reply to the VM's ARP requests for local IPs.1 parent 31cdddf commit ba242ba
