Route

(:redirect route/usage:)

Route is a tool for viewing and manipulating the kernel's IP routing table

\

With route you can configure your network routing to other hosts and gateways. You may have a bunch of virtual machines with a certain routing scheme, or physical computers with many NICs (Network Interface Card, or just network adapter). If you have a OpenBSD shell access you can try to show the current routing parameters of the machine.\

\

Some example usages:\

route -n show // Show routing table without resolving DNS names\

route show // Show routing table and solve DNS names\

\

To add a route to the network 192.168.5.0/24 use:\

route add -inet 192.168.5.0/24 192.168.0.1\

where the latter address is the gateway\

\

To change the default gateway:\

edit the file /etc/mygate directly\
