you'll need the following options as well...
CONFIG_DECNET_ROUTER (to be able to add/delete routes)
- CONFIG_NETLINK (to allow rtnetlink)
- CONFIG_RTNETLINK (for communication with the kernel routing layer)
CONFIG_NETFILTER (will be required for the DECnet routing daemon)

+ CONFIG_DECNET_ROUTE_FWMARK is optional
