The kernel's networking code automatically creates a route for the subnet when you add the IP to the interface. You can check this like so: ifconfig re0 172.20.0.1/24 netstat -rn Replace re0 with your interface. You'll notice that just by adding an IP with a subnet mask to an interface, you get a route for that subnet created. --=20 Freddie Cash fjwcash@gmail.com
