IP Routes

Daniel Wajsman — Thu, 02 May 2002 11:49:45 GMT

Hi
I have a NNM HP9000 Server running on a 172.18.x.x network and several PC terminals running on a 10.66.x.x network.they are NAT- divided by VLAN's.
Every time I reboot the HP9000 it looses IP communication with the 10.66.x.x network,which is the situation now.
How can I configure the HP9000 to restart without neccesity of changing its configuration every time?
I look at the /etc/rc.config.d/netconf and it seems to be OK.
Thanks

Well you are looking in the right place. Here is an example of a static 10 route in that file, the second entry represents the main route.

GL,
C

ROUTE_DESTINATION[0]=10.0.0.0
ROUTE_MASK[0]=255.0.0.0
ROUTE_GATEWAY[0]=10.15.248.5
ROUTE_COUNT[0]=1
ROUTE_ARGS[0]=""

RARP=0

IP_ADDRESS[0]=10.15.248.34
SUBNET_MASK[0]=255.255.255.0
INTERFACE_NAME[0]=lan1
BROADCAST_ADDRESS[0]=10.15.248.255
INTERFACE_STATE[0]=up
DHCP_ENABLE[0]=0

ROUTE_DESTINATION[0]=default
ROUTE_MASK[0]=255.0.0.0
ROUTE_GATEWAY[0]=10.15.248.1
ROUTE_COUNT[0]=1
ROUTE_ARGS[0]=""

What do you have to do after a reboot to fix it?

If it's simply adding a route then you're right, the permanent setting are held in netconf.

If you post the relevant details and your netconf file, we chan check it for you.

You could also look in the boot log /etc/rc.log to check if any errors are reported.

Routes are added in the section which starts:-
Output from "/sbin/rc2.d/S340net start":
