creating a Domain should not automatically switch on ip_forwarding

creating a TSAMP-Domain causes unasked ip_forwarding to "on" even though it is not necessary if CG(s) are all in the same subnet. RSCT needs the function "Loose Source Routing":
A simple answer for now is that RSCT uses LSR to deal with communication
between cluster nodes when multiple networks are impaired, and there is
no direct route between two nodes, but there are indirect routes
available because of neighbors that both those node share. (This means
it is useless on a 2-node cluster.) "IP forwarding" is required for LSR
to function -- if it is disabled, LSR will not work.
