Off Topic - making a route sticky

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



} Is it possible to have a route stick in the kernel, even if device it
} points to
} goes to roller coaster up and down drive.
} 
} For example.  I have an ADSL modem and am doing VPN over it.  There's a
} route
} needed for VPN added like this:
} 
} ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 via 1.2.3.4 src 192.168.2.1
} 
} There are two problems with it:
} 
} a) if ADSL link is down when above command is executed, the route command
} will
} fail (ppp0 is down, so there's no 1.2.3.4)
} 
} b) if ADSL link is up when above command is executed, but it goes down
} (and up
} again) later, the route is removed from kernel routing tables
} 
} Thanks,
} Aleksandar Milivojevic

off topic

may i ask what brand and model of adsl modem you are using?

i am guessing it is an internal unit and works with Linux and specifically
CentOS
