Hi, If I correctly understood your question - Where does the interface configuration is stored, so that when ever the interface starts/re-starts, the route gets added to the routing table? If so, /etc/sysconfig/network-scrpts/ifcfg-eth<x> files have the IP address, netmask etc. That should provide the needed information to add a static route.
