Library /sys$common/syshlp/tcpip$ucp_help.hlb SET, ROUTE  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    Defines a routing path in either the permanent or volatile routes
    database.

    Routes in the permanent, on-disk routes database are static.
    Static routes can be supplemented by routes that the dynamic
    routing server receives. Defaults are as follows:

    o  If the network is not active, the command affects the
       permanent database.

    o  If the network is active, the command affects the volatile
       database. (To modify the permanent database, use the
       /PERMANENT qualifier.)

    Note the following restrictions:

    o  You can add routes.

    o  You cannot use SET NOROUTE to remove a route that is
       maintained by the route daemon.

    o  To have full manual control over your routing table, first
       issue STOP ROUTING and then use SET NOROUTE.

    o  SET NOROUTE does not require any qualifiers.

    Related commands: SHOW ROUTE, STOP ROUTING

                                   NOTE

       Compaq strongly recommends that you do not specify
       alias names with the destination parameter or with the
       /GATEWAY=host qualifier.

    Format

      SET [NO]ROUTE  destination

                     [ /[NO]CONFIRM ]

                     [ /DEFAULT_ROUTE ]

                     [ /GATEWAY=host ]

                     [ /MASK=mask_length ]

                     [ /NETWORK ]

                     [ /PERMANENT ]
