in fact, upon some digging, it looks like you put RULES in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/rule-ethX and ROUTES in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-ethX
the lines in the rule-* file are run prefixed by `ip rule add` while the lines in the route-* file are prefixed by `ip route add` on an interface 'up' event, and on the corresponding 'down' event, they are prefixed by ip {route|rule} del ....
So does anyone have a clue on which is the syntax for creating complex routes and rules using route-* and rule-*?
Heh. I have not had time to go through the network scripts...last thing I heard about was route-* but that was Centos/RHEL 4. Docs have been lacking on this side of things...
