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.

NAME
ifmetric - An IPv4 route metrics manipulation tool SYNOPSIS
ifmetric INTERFACE [METRIC] DESCRIPTION
ifmetric is a Linux tool for setting the metrics of all IPv4 routes attached to a given network interface at once. This may be used to change the priority of routing IPv4 traffic over the interface. Lower metrics correlate with higher priorities. ifmetric uses the Linux NETLINK interface to manipulate the routes. Because of that it is compatible with routes created with the new iproute2 utility. OPTIONS
You should specify the interface name as first parameter. The second parameter should be the new metric. If ommited the metric 0 (highest) is used. RETURN VALUES
0 Success 1 Failure AUTHOR
ifmetric was written by Lennart Poettering <mzvszrgevp (at) 0pointer (dot) de>. ifmetric is available at http://0pointer.de/lennart/projects/ifmetric/ SEE ALSO
