Configure network static route table

[Worapoj P.]

Dear Expertise,

I would like to make network routing table permanence every time system bootup.
Right after system up I need to issue command #route add -host 202.44.66.1 gw 202.44.66.254.

How to configure routing table to permanence every system reboot or shutdown?
What is conf file routing table?

Thanks in advance for your helps.

Depends on what version of LINUX you have but for RedHat you have to edit the file:

/etc/sysconfig/static-routes

Contains lines of the form:
device net network netmask netmask gw gateway

device is the device name for which to have the route brought up.

See this thread for RedHat systems. I think Mandrake may be the same also, but not sure.
