Add persistent route in cent os 6.5

Hi ,

I have cent os 6.5 and am trying to make few routes permanent for bond:
i have added two routes using below two commands :
Code:
/sbin/route add -net 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 gw  10.59.160.128
/sbin/route add -net 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 gw  49.44.52.90

post which route command output is as below :
Code:
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
49.44.52.96     *               255.255.255.224 U     0      0        0 bond1
10.59.163.128   *               255.255.255.192 U     0      0        0 eth0
10.70.77.0      *               255.255.255.192 U     0      0        0 bond0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1002   0        0 eth0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1014   0        0 bond0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1015   0        0 bond1
10.0.0.0        10.59.160.128   255.0.0.0       UG    0      0        0 eth0
default         49.44.52.90    0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 bond1

but afeter i restart the network routes are not persistent , output of route command post network restart is as follows :
Kernel IP routing table
Code:
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
49.44.52.96     *               255.255.255.224 U     0      0        0 bond1
10.59.163.128   *               255.255.255.192 U     0      0        0 eth0
10.70.77.0      *               255.255.255.192 U     0      0        0 bond0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1002   0        0 eth0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1014   0        0 bond0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1015   0        0 bond1
default         10.59.160.128   0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

can someone please let me know how i can add correct routes permanently which will persist post network restart as well.

man route:
Quote:
DESCRIPTION
Route manipulates the kernel's IP routing tables.
, i.e. the "live" tables. To make a change permanent, add it to /etc/route.conf, /etc/sysconfig/network/routes or whatever your system is using/providing in their place.

@RudiC : There are no files such as /etc/route.conf and /etc/sysconfig/network/routes but still i have tried to create a separate file with name route-eth0 and route-bond1 under directory - /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts with below content :
Code:
ADDRESS0=10.0.0.0
NETMASK0=255.0.0.0
GATEWAY0=10.59.160.128

and it worked for eth0 post network reboot as well but i am not so sure what entry i should put in route-bond1 infront of ADDRESS0. the expected result for bond1 route is :
Code:
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
default         49.44.52.90    0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 bond1

Can someone please assist ...
below are the entries which i had made as a static route :

Code:
 
cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0
ADDRESS0=10.0.0.0
NETMASK0=255.0.0.0
GATEWAY0=10.59.160.128
cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-bond1
NETMASK0=0.0.0.0
GATEWAY0=49.44.52.90
ADDRESS0=0.0.0.0

but still post restarting network service routing for bond1 is replaced by eth0 as below :
Code:
 
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
49.44.52.96     *               255.255.255.224 U     0      0        0 bond1
10.59.163.128   *               255.255.255.192 U     0      0        0 eth0
10.70.77.0      *               255.255.255.192 U     0      0        0 bond0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1002   0        0 eth0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1014   0        0 bond0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1015   0        0 bond1
10.0.0.0        10.59.160.128   255.0.0.0       UG    0      0        0 eth0
default         10.59.160.128   0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

ideally even after network restart it should be :
Code:
 
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
49.44.52.96     *               255.255.255.224 U     0      0        0 bond1
10.59.163.128   *               255.255.255.192 U     0      0        0 eth0
10.70.77.0      *               255.255.255.192 U     0      0        0 bond0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1002   0        0 eth0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1014   0        0 bond0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1015   0        0 bond1
10.0.0.0        10.59.160.128   255.0.0.0       UG    0      0        0 eth0
default         49.44.52.90    0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 bond1
