How to add permanent route for HP11.11 server

[YLTan]

I need to add a route permanently in my HP11.11 server. Which file do i need to update the route?

In Tru64, the route file is /etc/routes.

[John Palmer]

/etc/rc.config.d/netconf

Hi,

You can add it in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf
just use the route add command to add it on line.

/etc/rc.config.d/netconf

entry in it should look like this once done;

ROUTE_DESTINATION[0]="default"
ROUTE_GATEWAY[0]="10.132.16.1"
ROUTE_COUNT[0]="1"

[YLTan]

can you give me some examples on how to use the route command.

I need to add 15.48.31.1 as a gateway for all 15.48 traffic to go via this gateway.

I not too familiar with these parm in netconf

ROUTE_DESTINATION[0]="??"
ROUTE_MASK[0]="??"
ROUTE_GATEWAY[0]="??"
ROUTE_COUNT[0]="??"
ROUTE_ARGS[0]="??"

the gateway i want to add is a second gateway beside the default. wat's the value
for

ROUTE_DESTINATION[0]="??"

In your /etc/rc.config.d/netconf

ROUTE_DESTINATION[1]=
ROUTE_MASK[1]=""
ROUTE_GATEWAY[1]=

[John Palmer · Accepted solution]

Your route command will be of the form:

route add net netmask 1

This translates into netconf as:

ROUTE_DESTINATION[n]="net "
ROUTE_MASK[n]=
ROUTE_GATEWAY[n]=
ROUTE_COUNT[n]=1
ROUTE_ARGS[n]=""

n starts as 0 and should be incremented for each route entry.

The example addresses that you have supplied don't appear valid because your router address is in the subnet you want to route to.
