I asked for another way > to achieve this When you add a default gateway with: route add default gw 192.168.1.1 dev enp3s0 you'll note that you now have 2 routes with the same metric of 0 (use route -n to see the metric field - couldn't get ip route to show me the metric). When using ip route command, you need to specify a different metric otherwise it won't take. To me, ip route is doing the right thing as having 2 gateways with the same metric will confuse the routing process. If you need to use ip route to add another default gateway, make sure to use a different metric: ip route add 0/0 via 192.168.1.1 dev enp3s0 metric <different_from_other_one> ak. ------------------------------------ PS: In my virtual environment *[0]*, the routing tables for tables t2 and t3 appeared incomplete. The route specified in the route files for network 192.168.1.0/24 was missing - most likely cause it was already in the main routing table. Only the default route appeared in the tables $ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-enp0s3 192.168.1.0/24 dev enp0s3 src 192.168.1.12 table t2 default via 192.168.1.1 dev enp0s3 table t2 $ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-enp0s8 192.168.1.0/24 dev enp0s8 src 192.168.1.13 table t3 default via 192.168.1.1 dev enp0s8 table t3 $ ip r l t t2 default via 192.168.1.1 dev enp0s3 $ ip r l t t3 default via 192.168.1.1 dev enp0s8 *[0]* - https://imagebin.ca/v/2r5NJgNEqSgQ
