static routes

There are several different ways to setup static routing in RedHat Linux systems. Below are three different ways to setup persistent static routes.

1)Edit the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-<eth#> and add the following lines

   GATEWAY0=<gateway address>
   NETMASK0=<network netmask>
   ADDRESS0=<network address>
   GATEWAY1=<gateway address>
   NETMASK1=<network netmask>
   ADDRESS1=<network address>

   Example would be, file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0
   GATEWAY0=192.168.0.1
   NETMASK0=255.240.0.0
   ADDRESS0=172.16.0.0
   GATEWAY1=192.168.0.1
   NETMASK1=255.0.0.0
   ADDRESS1=10.0.0.0

2)Edit the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-<eth#>

   <ADDRESS>/<MASK BITS> via <GATEWAY> dev <eth#>

   Example would be, file /etc/sysconfig/network-scrips/route-eth0
   172.16.0.0/12 via 192.168.0.1 dev eth0
   10.0.0.0/8 via 192.168.0.1 dev eth0

3)Static Routes file. Edit the file /etc/sysconfig/static-routes

   any net <NETWORK> netmask <NETMASK> gw <GATEWAY> <DEV>

   Example would be, file /etc/sysconfig/static-routes
   any net 172.16.0.0 netmask 255.240.0.0 gw 192.168.0.1 eth0
   any net 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 gw 192.168.0.1 eth0
