Adding a route to IDS 4.1(3)

[bbenton]

Is there anyway to do this? I need to add an internal route in addition to the gateway.

Not sure if this is oficially supported..but

1. Log in as service

2. su - root

3. cd to /etc/sysconfig

4. Create the file static-routes "vi static-routes"

5. Add the lines for you static routes:

ex: eth0 net 10.199.150.0 netmask 255.255.255.128 gw 10.199.150.1

(see Linux documentation for more info)

6. save the file and change permissions to 600

7. reboot the sensor. When it comes back up, log back in as service and do a netstat -nr. Your new route should be there.

Yeah, I've already been thru the "supported" routine with TAC. I know it will go away when upgraded or recovered, but I'll know pretty quickly when that happens.

Thanks!
