Route Delete a Record

yansfung · 04-01-2014, 02:34 AM

I have a recode like this following:

etc]# netstat -nr|grep 46.29
46.29.255.46 - 255.255.255.255 !H - - - -

I have tried to remove as following but failed. Can somebody tell me what else has missed in this CLI. Thanks a lot indeed!

etc]# route delete 46.29.255.46

whats the error message while you're trying to delete the route ? Assuming its a static route, you have to specify the delete in the format below

Quote:

route del -host XX.XX.XX.XX gw XX.XX.XX.XX

Thanks for your reply!

I would like to delete this routing record:

46.29.255.182 - 255.255.255.255 !H - - - -

Have tried this as" route del-host 46.29.255.182 gw lo " but failed! What setting value that I have missed.

Assuming you added a space after "del" . You should be able to delete the route by using some command like below

Quote:

route del -net 46.29.255.182 netmask 255.255.255.255

Thanks srinishrews for your answer!

It seems that it won't work at my Fedora 14. How about flush the routing table and start from beginning to enter the routing records?

Best regards,

Yan.

[root]# route del -net 46.29.255.182 netmask 255.255.255.255

I'm not familiar with Fedora setup but it should be the same as other flavors. Do u have hosts file configured in /etc/hosts ? it happens sometimes when you dont have the right entries in hosts file. Also check if you have any static entries for this IP under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts

It seems Fedora 14 could has some difference so that the behaviour is out of my expectation.

Thanks a lot indeed!
