Hello All, Sorry for very basic question .I am new to adv. routing What is command to add in table main which looks like 172.16.1.250 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 172.16.1.245 here 172.16.1.250 is gw ip and 172.16.1.245 is interface address. I tried with command ip route add 192.168.1.247 scope link dev eth1 proto kernel but i did not get the "src 172.16.1.245" Thanks Suresh _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
