How can I force freebsd 2.2.5 stable to ignore route redirects? Routed is turned off and I tried specifying these routes as static routes but one of our routers sends redirects when there is a WAN hiccup and internal traffic gets routed out to the internet (default for the router). The static routes also get over ridden by the redirects. The redirect would be fine except that when the WAN is back up the freebsd machine never changes back. The Corp WAN guy has turned RIP off for the entire WAN so I think my only option is to get the Freebsd machine to ignore the redirects. I noticed that even without routed my route table contains "learned" routes and keeps growing. Is it possible to turn this behavior off (would probably solve my redirect problem). We have Sun Solaris machines that without routed contain only a couple routes in their route table and it never changes. I would prefer this behavior. Thanks for any help you can give...
