<p>avahi-autoipd can be used as stand-alone address allocator
or as plugin for a DHCP client such as ISC's dhclient, where it
can be used as fallback solution if no DHCP server is found.</p>
+
+ <p>To allow communication between hosts that have only an IPv4LL
+ address assigned and hosts that only have a routable IP address
+ assigned you may add the following routes to both network
+ configurations:</p>
+
+ <p><opt>route add -net 169.254.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 dev eth0 metric 99</opt></p>
+ <p><opt>route add default dev eth0 metric 99</opt></p>
