Doubt in route add

[HP UX Admin]

Can anybody explain how the 'rout add 'command works?

The situation where i need to add client of different network in DP cll server.

where i need to execute the route add command?
In cell server or client?
#route add net .......> which network addres i need to give

Shalom,

route adds a path from current network to a network that can not be contacted.

an example works.

Lets say I'm in the 192.168.0 network and I need a server I admin to have a connection to a second network say 10.128.0 network.

So I'd do a route add from 192.168.0 to 10.128.0

In this case I'd want to add a route to both the DP server and the client to insure good two way communication.

It's a very nice doc,now i understood the command.
Pls clear me if i am wrong.
From the source server,
#route add net (network of the destination IP)netmask(netmask of the dest IP) routerIP of the dest network

network of the destination IP >>>> will get in netstat -in output of dest server

How will i get the router IP of the destination network

My psychic powers are too weak to tell me
which systems in your network are gateways,
or what their IP addresses are. Many things
are possible, depending on the details of
your network configuration. Have you
revealed any information about your network?
I see none. Who is connected to whom, how?
What are the IP addresses? Any useful
information at all?
