# tail -n 5 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-post
if [ -x /sbin/ifup-local ]; then
    /sbin/ifup-local ${DEVICE}
fi

exit 0

So in theory if you create /sbin/ifup-local and make it executable
(chmod +x /sbin/ifup-post), it should be executed every time an
interface goes up, after the interface is up and running; the name of
the interface is passed as a parameter.

In your case, the content of /sbin/ifup-post would be:

#!/bin/sh
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/${1}/rp_filter

I cannot guarantee that it works, but give it a shot.

If it works, then you can consider it the "official" way to execute
something after an interface has been brought up.
