I have a machine with two net interfaces.
it seems to always pick the wrong one (eth1) as the default route.
I can change it with
route del default route add default eth0
after it's up (or in rc.local, of course), but I'd like to
figure out
what I need to do this "the CentOS way" (e.g. edit some
configuration
file? Run some config utility, what?) once and for all.
Can somebody point me to the canonical documentation on the
subject?
I've searched /usr/share/doc and the man pages, but I can't find anything useful.
Googling for "default route centos" gives some interesting
stuff, but
nothing definitive.
route add default gw ${GATEWAYS_IP}
Our 2 nics are a wan(static) and lan(dhcp)
We set the default route for the wan, and when the dhcp lease expires and renews it klobbers the default route with the lan's gateway.
