VMware: Adding a static route to an ESX host for an extra service console

0

First you can add a route with putty or console:

route add -net 172.16.254.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.20.1.222

After restart your route is gone, so you need to add a static route.

Add the following line to /etc/rc.local so that route is set on boot:

/sbin/route add -net 172.16.254.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.20.1.222
