man 7 rtnetlink ?

DESCRIPTION

	Rtnetlink allows the kernel’s routing tables to be read and altered.  It is
	used within the kernel to communicate between various subsystems, though this
	usage is not documented here, and for communication with user-space programs.
	Network routes, ip addresses, link parameters, neighbor setups,  queueing
	disciplines,  traffic  classes  and packet classifiers may all be controlled
	through NETLINK_ROUTE sockets.  It is based on netlink messages, see netlink(7)
	for more information.
