Dynamic routes...?

Hi,

I have a team HP9000 D390 with HP-UX 10.20. This team creating dynamic routes. I don't use DNS and the demons GATED, RDPD, RIP ...etc is disabled.

Because these dynamic routes are believed?

I remit them seen of the command netstat -r"

Hi Orlando,

The 'D' flag gives away what these are.

These routes are all the result of 'ICMP redirects'

That is, initially your server was connecting to all these systemns through your default gateway (10.4.1.54), but that gateway reckons it knows better and more efficient ways to reach the destination than through itself (this implies there are other routers on the same subnet as your host), so it sends an ICMP redirect to your system and it updates its routing table accordingly.

These aren't necesarily anything to worry about. You can talk to your network team about this and just check that the router is behaving as it should, otherwise you can safely ignore them.
