- From the man-page of route(8) in 2.2.8-R:

 If the destination is directly reachable via an interface requiring no
 intermediary system to act as a gateway, the -interface modifier should
 be specified; the gateway given is the address of this host on the common
 network, indicating the interface to be used for transmission.  Alter-
 nately, if the interface is point to point the name of the interface it-
 self may be given, in which case the route remains valid even if the lo-
 cal or remote addresses change.
