/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-ethN Question

[Richardson, Joshua A.]

You can simply create the file in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts folder.  Here's an example of one I use:

[root at AMDRFileServer1 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0
# /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0
#
0.0.0.0/0 via 10.10.207.1 dev eth0  # Default gateway route
192.168.4.3 via 10.10.207.88 dev eth0 # Host route
192.168.0.0/16 dev eth0 # Subnet route

Subject: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-ethN Question

Hey everyone,
I am trying to find out more about setting up per-device routing using
the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-ethN file. Basically I'm not
about to find any real details about how the file is supposed to be
created. Is it just a shell script with ip route commands? I have
three network interfaces, and each needs to be connected to its own
discrete network with its own gateway. Right now I have all of the
rules set up in /etc/rc.local, which seems to work fine for the first
two interfaces, but not the third.

Due to the circumstances, normal static routing won't work - I need to
use iproute2.

Since the /etc/sysconfig/network-script/route-ethN file gets run when
the interface comes up, I am assuming this may help. Any advice is
appreciated.
