I don't know.
Using <https://manpages.debian.org/stretch/iproute2/ip.8.en.html> I was 
not able to parse the given example.
The output shown for the example hints at "Yes".
I'll have to investigate the references under "See Also".

A reference WITHOUT a link referred to "IP Command reference ip-cref.ps".
A search lead to <http://linux-ip.net/gl/ip-cref/> which EXPLICITLY 
stated "It is not a tutorial or user's guide."
But that's what I need. Where should I look?

TIA
