Running Gentoo with kernel 2.6.29 on a Sparc Ultra 10.
I'm having problems with my cable modem connection failing, so I've added a static route that enables me to log into the modem's diagnostics page at 192.168.100.1 when the connection drops; my /etc/conf.d/net looks like this (with the comment lines removed).
Code:
dns_domain_lo="MYNETWORK"
config_eth1=( "192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255" )
config_eth0=( "dhcp" )
routes_eth0=(
"192.168.100.1/32 via 0.0.0.0"
)
dhcpcd_eth0="-N"
This works but after a period of several hours to several days, this static route disappears from the routing table.
Any ideas why this is happening?
