How do I add a network route permanently using "route add" commandin linux.

[unix syzadmin]

Hi,

After adding /etc/route-eth0, Please find how the route looks like.  Is this
fine, Please suggest.

[root at bgpcamd1 network-scripts]# ls -l route-eth0
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 24 Feb 24 09:46 route-eth0
[root at bgpcamd1 network-scripts]# more route-eth0
0.0.0.0 via 172.22.40.1
[root at bgpcamd1 network-scripts]# route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use
Iface
0.0.0.0         172.22.40.1     255.255.255.255 UGH   0      0        0 eth0
172.22.40.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.254.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
169.254.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 eth0
0.0.0.0         172.22.40.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
