Bug Description

The netplan documentation says to use a 'fwmark' key on policy-based routing declarations for the firewall mark value to match on. The implementation looks instead for a key named 'mark'. This inconsistency needs to be fixed.

I also discovered this, and cyphermox merged my patch a while ago. (https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/netplan/pull/27/commits/53a570308a9ac23d05dac70de43b64076caa0ffb) but the fix isn't in 0.36.3.

There doesn't seem to be a github branch for bionic that I can find, so I can't backport the patch myself...

Seems like the docs have been updated: https://netplan.io/reference#properties-for-device-type-ethernets:

mark (scalar)
    Have this routing policy rule match on traffic that has been marked by the iptables firewall with this value. Allowed values are positive integers starting from 1.

This bug should be closed.
