NG R54 -- Adding static route

[lybica]

Hello,

I'm trying to add a static route in my SPLAT, but no way to get it saved. I tried with CLI and through the browser but no luck. Any idea?

Thank you,

Thank you,

can you add route via "sysconfig" utility?

Hello,

Yes, i tried with sysconfig and I get the same result. very strange

I meant, with sysconfig the route added is not saved.

did you do "route --save" after that?

Hello,

Why "route --save"? When I lunch "sysconf" in the bottom of the menu, I have a note explicitly saying "configuration changes are automatically saved".
I know the operation should be straight forward, but something is weird. I'll summarize what I'm doing

1- Lunch "sysconf"
2- Select Item 2 (Routing)
3- Select Item1 (Add new network route)
- Network IP address: xxx.xxx.xxx.0
- Network mask: 255.255.255.0
- Gateway IP address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
- Outgoing interface: Interface who is in the same network then the
gateway IP address

If it is straight forward, then we should not even be talking about it right?
Something is obviously not right here.

Option #1: do what you did with "route --save" after that

Option #2: modify the /etc/sysconfig/cpnetstart file

Hi,

- I do what I did with "route --save". the changes are not saved
- I edit the file cpnetstart (size 1193), I add the route, I save and exit. The file size become 1278.
- I lunch "route --save", the change is nit applied and the file size come back to 1193

The rights for cpnetstart was 644 owner root:root. I changed it to 666 and I repeat the procedure, the changes are not saved.

Thank you,
