So with a little help I figured out how to setup these routes and I can set them in rc.local

route add -net 208.82.236.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp0 metric 1

route add -net 208.82.236.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0 metric 10

my question is being that the first route is ppp0 as soon as I disconnect the modem the route is dropped how do I maintain the route or make it permanent so that next time the modem connects it will follow the route.

Currently after ppp0 disconnects the route is dropped

netstat -r Kernel IP routing table

Destination Gateway

Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface laxapx03.o1.com *

255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0

208.82.236.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0

10.0.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0

169.254.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0

default 10.0.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

  • How are you establishing the modem connection? That's going to determine what you hook into to re-establish your routes. – jgoldschrafe Dec 31 '10 at 04:17

  • Do I just add the route to /etp/ppp/ip-up/ – user65053 Dec 31 '10 at 04:39

Create executable script in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/ for example - setroute

!/bin/sh

route add -net 208.82.236.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp0 metric 1
