Route does not work via Luci

Installing and Using OpenWrt Network and Wireless Configuration
1

Hello there :wink:

I've just configured an static route in Luci. I can apply the rule or even reboot the device. But the route would never have been configured

inside /etc/config/network i've the rule

config route
	option target '172.23.230.0/24'
	option gateway '172.23.223.58'
	option table 'default'
	option interface 'lan'

it works only via "ip route add 172.23.230.0/24 via 172.23.229.58" over SSH but that is not persistent. Any idea how I could fix it?

cheers Darko

Change the table to 'main'.

I've tried it with

config route
	option target '172.23.230.0'
	option netmask '255.255.255.0'
	option gateway '172.23.229.58'

still does not works persistent

Ok

with this route at place, as configured, make a reboot, then SSH into router and

ip r

then, make your

ip route add 172.23.230.0/24 via 172.23.229.58

and then

ip r

lets see what is a difference ?

I've got an running config now

config route
	option target '172.23.230.0'
	option netmask '255.255.255.0'
	option gateway '172.23.229.58'
	option interface 'lan'
	option table 'main'

It has worked after reboot the router
thanks at all :slight_smile:

Hey, do you mind telling for what purpose you are using routing for?? Just curious. I am new to openwrt. Thanks.
