Hi,

example
# route add 192.xx.x.25 netmask 255.255.xxx.xxx 1

and do not forget to edit the /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file.

Regards,
Robert-Jan

Hello


That means that the gateay that u want to add is not reachable.

do a

#netstat -rn
to check if that route is added or not.


Better to do it this way:

1) suppose 10.202.202.0 is the remote network that u want to reach.
u want to reach this using the lan2 on ur Server that has an assigned IP of 172.10.10.55
then give the command as

#route add net 10.202.202.0 172.10.10.55 1

and check

You're forgetting to add the "hop count" parameter. Note the extra "1" at the end of both Robert's and Sujit's examples.

This is one of the differences between HP-UX and most other unix-like systems: in HP-UX, you must always specify the hop count when adding or deleting gateways.
