Hi,

I would like to know how to add a static route to
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0?

I know how to do it manually via the route command.
e.g.

route add -net 224.0.0.0 netmask 240.0.0.0 dev eth0
which give you the following route.

Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
224.0.0.0 * 240.0.0.0 0 0 0 eth 0

But i would like to add the route to route-eth0 so i don't need to apply it manually everytime the server reboots.

I've seen an example format for the file as

192.168.0.0/24 via 152.3.182.5

But i don't know what the equivalent is for the following route
route add -net 224.0.0.0 netmask 240.0.0.0 dev eth0

What do i put after 'via' for the above multicast route.

eg.
224.0.0.0/4 via ???


Cheers

I think you want to use /etc/sysconfig/static-routes instead. You would use syntax like this (I think):
You also might want to consider using /etc/net.
