How To Add A Static Route For Mac

To create static routes, you use the 'staticroute' program (which you'll find in /usr/local/sbin). Staticroute add 10.128.4.0/24 'Main Network Interface' staticroute delete 10.192.0.0/16 'Other Interface' You can also see the list of configured static routes with. Staticroute list and a list of interface names with. Staticroute list-interfaces. Has anyone found a way to automatically add routes, now that OSX doesn't seem to use ppp anymore? Does the if-up ppp script still work?

First I would like to thank Giaguara for the previous post, it has helped me more than any other I could find in setting up a persistant static route on Tiger.I did run into a few gotchas that may have to do with changes Apple has made with updates or just unknown differences in our installations so I thought I would post my method in the hopes that it might help someone else.I am assuming that anyone digging this deep into the system has probably enabled the root user so everything that follows assumes that you have opened a Terminal and typed 'su' to become root. Of course be very careful whenever doing anything as root on your system.The first problem I ran into was that there was no /System/Library/StartupItems/NetworkExtensions on my system so I did not start with a copy of something Apple provided as Giaguara did.So here we go.
