Hi Jack,

Add them like this.

ROUTE_DESTINATION[x]="192.168.10.0"
ROUTE_GATEWAY[x]="192.166.10.1"
ROUTE_COUNT[x]="1"
ROUTE_MASK[x]="255.255.255.0"

Where 'x' is the index. Look at other "ROUTE" entries in the file and use the next number.

ROUTE_DESTINATION is either a network or a host. The example I gave is network. ROUTE_COUNT is the number of the hops system has to make to reach the gateway. If the gateway is nothing but another interface on the system, it is 0. If it is directly reachable (on the same subnet) then it's 1 and so on.

ROUTE_MASK - get it from your network folks. With an appropriate netmask, you can cover multiple networks in the same route. Make sure your gateway supports it.

For example:

ROUTE_DESTINATION[0]="default"
ROUTE_MASK[0]=""
ROUTE_GATEWAY[0]="128.1.0.1"
ROUTE_COUNT[0]=""
ROUTE_ARGS[0]=""

ROUTE_DESTINATION[1]="net 192.1.1"
ROUTE_MASK[1]="255.255.255.0"
ROUTE_GATEWAY[1]="128.1.0.1"
ROUTE_COUNT[1]="1"
ROUTE_ARGS[1]=""

GATED=0

ROUTE_DESTINATION may be "default" for default route, "net" for an entire net routing, or "host" for a specific host.

ROUTE_COUNT may be 1 if the route requires hops accross one or more gateways, and 0 for hosts on your local network.

Stf ;-)
