A strange one this. I was trying to change the default route of a
machine for testing a different gateway.
I ran:
route del default gw <gateway1>
route add default gw <gateway2>
However the second command did not add the route and I could not add the
old default route back. There were no errors on stdout or in
/var/log/messages.
Now I found that if there is already a default route you can add another
one, so could do a:
route add default gw <gateway2>
route del default gw <gateway2>
And these worked fine. It seems you cannot set a default route if there
isn't one set.
Any ideas ?
