"Route add" problems...
Hi all...
i need to add a route to a HP-UX 11.11 U server.
Well, i have this server in a 192.168.1.x network and i need to reach a new fresh network with the IP 192.168.237.x trough the 192.168.1.247 gateway, then, when i run the "route add" command this fail all the time, it only show this message: "-net: bad value" or simply gives me a "usage" message. please help me to solve this issue Smilie

PD: I already test this command with many combinations but still no luck Smilie
like:
route add -net 192.168.237.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.247
route add -net 192.168.237.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.247
route add -net 192.168.237.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.247 1
route add -net 192.168.237.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.247 metric 1
route add -net 192.168.237.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.247
route add -net 192.168.237.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.247 1
route add -net 192.168.237.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.247 metric 1
/etc/route add -net 192.168.237.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.247

... and so on...

Thanks in advance

It's "net" not "-net". And ironically, the "net" is optional.
route add net 192.168.237.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.247 1
if you like the verbose form. Or
route add 192.168.237.0 192.168.1.247

Note that 192.168.1.247 must be reachable already for this to work.
