route

I have a route question. I can manually add a dynamic route with

route add net w.x.y.z netmask a.b.c.d W.X.Y.Z 1

but how do I make this permanent without manually editing /etc/rc.config.d/netconf?

In DG-UX you use route -k to permanently add a route. Can you manipulate routing in SAM?

I would not dare using SAM for that purpose...

I'm afraid there is no other way than editing /etc/rc.config.d/netconf. Unless you write a script doing the job, of course ;-)

By the way, if you are using a dynamic routing protocol with gated (say RIP or OSPF), do not forget to confirm the static routes in the gated.conf file, otherwise they will be deleted by gated.

Hope it helps, Emmanuel

Thanks. That's what I was afraid of. Guess I'll have to write my own script. It's only really pertinent if you're doing a lot of routing changes I'd say.
