automatic new routes in route table.

Hi,
IBM Server with AIX 5.2. I have already added a static route for a whole network but everyday some automatic routes to hosts adds up in route table of this server, some of which invalid routes that stops communication of server to that network. If these invalid routes are removed from route table everything works normally. Pls tell me how can I avoid this problem.
Thanks.

ROUTE.CONF(5)						      BSD File Formats Manual						     ROUTE.CONF(5)

NAME
route.conf -- static routes config file DESCRIPTION
The route.conf file is read by the staticroute rc.d script during system start-up and shutdown, and is intended for adding and removing static routes. FILE FORMAT Lines starting with a hash ('#') are comments and ignored. Lines starting with a plus sign ('+') are run during start-up, while lines start- ing with a minus sign ('-') are run during system shutdown. If a line starts with a '!', the rest of the line will get evaluated as a shell script fragment. All other lines are passed to route(8). During start-up, they are passed behind a ``route add -'' command and during shut- down behind a ``route delete -'' command. FILES
/etc/route.conf The route.conf file resides in /etc. /etc/rc.d/staticroute rc.d(8) script that parses route.conf. EXAMPLES
In this example, the interface for the desired routing changes is set, the IP address on that interface is determined, and a route is added during startup, or deleted during system shutdown. # Set interface and determine current IP address for added route. !ifname=bnx0 !ipaddr=$(/sbin/ifconfig ${ifname} | awk '$1 == "inet" {print $2}') net 10.10.1 -interface ${ipaddr} In this example, IP forwarding is turned on during start-up, and a static route added for 192.168.2.0. During system shutdown, the route is removed and IP forwarding turned off. # Turn on/off IP forwarding. +sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 -sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=0 net 192.168.2.0 -netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.150.2 SEE ALSO
