Hi, the file is in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts, see:

Shalom,

You can add GATEWAY commands to each entry in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg- files.

you could either create a route file for each interface, e.g.,

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0

and put entries in it like this in the file:

192.168.0.0/24 via 10.10.50.1

or you can add route add commands to /etc/rc.local.

If you assign me at least 2 points, you will see my hat magically change.
