Make the route add persistent (-p), and specify the interface you want it to use,(if) e.g "0x1" Regards, Rob Ellis User Support Manager ntl Group IT Ext: (711) 4245 DDI: 01256 754245 Mob: 07974 403273 email: rob.ellis@xxxxxxx ________________________________ From: windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dennis Appelboom Sent: 07 June 2005 16:03 To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [windows2000] static route binds to wrong interface Dear list, I have a very strange problem. I have two NIC's in a windows 2003 server. One has ip address is 10.0.10.100/255.255.0.0 The other ip address is 10.0.152.16/255.255.255.0 Next, I need to add the following static route: 10.31.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 gw 10.0.152.9 Well, if do a ipconfig /all, I see a list of routes... And the route 10.31.0.0 is bound to interface 10.0.10.100 What I tried was to disable the 10.0.10.100 interface, remove the static route and add it again... Then enable the 10.0.10.100 interface again....and this works... Unfortunately, when I reboot the server, the static route is again bound to the wrong interface. To make things worse, there is another server that is identical, but of course with different ip addresses, that does not have this problem... Does anyone have a clue why this server is binding the static route to the wrong interface??
