S340net start route errors

[MikeL_4]

After a reboot of our server we are receiving errors in rc,log from /sbin/rc2.d/S340net:

ERROR: Failed to add route entry because its interface is not yet initialized. May need to add this route entry with a route commad after the interface is up : netmask: bad value

I can do a manual route add after the server is back up and routes add ok.

What could be causing it not to work on startup ??

Yes you can add the routes after the system is up with the route add command.
The cause of the problem could be a switch port(bad or not configured correctly)or a cable or maybe a gateway that is not correctly configured.
Was that lan working prior to the reboot or is this a new configuration

Hi,

DO a

#netstat -in
and
#ifconfig

to check if the network interfaces instances are UP and IP config is correct.

latter you kay try to add the statis route manually using

#route add

and confirm the route by

#netstate -r

if this is OK and you are able to reach the other network,then you may add this statis route entry in any rc script so that during every reboot the route is getting added.

Regards,

Siva.

check /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file. I hope there is some problem that route settings there but not the interface informations.
