Adding Special Routes

Special routes are the routes added to reach one of the local destinations via a gateway. By default,

trafﬁc between local-local destinations are never pushed on wire because both the end points are directly

reachable on the system.

In order to trace this local-local trafﬁc on wire, users can alter the above default behavior. In this

scenario, trafﬁc between two local destinations is routed to a external gateway and then it gets routed

back to the same host.

Examples:

Settings required to push the communication between two local

destination lan1 and lan2.

To push traffic destined to lan1 on wire, set force flag on lan1 using

ifconﬁg(1M):

ifconfig lan1 192.168.10.2 up force

Similarly set force flag on lan2:

ifconfig lan2 192.171.10.2 up force

Add a special "host/net/default" routes to each local destination via remote gateway.

Adding host routes to local destinations:

route add host 192.168.10.2 192.171.10.1 1 source 192.171.10.2 \

force

route add host 192.171.10.2 192.168.10.1 1 source 192.168.10.2 \

force

Adding net routes to local destinations:

route add net 192.168.10.0 192.171.10.1 1 source 192.171.10.2 \

force

route add net 192.171.10.0 192.168.10.1 1 source 192.168.10.2 \

force

Adding default routes to local destinations:

route add default 192.171.10.1 1 source 192.171.10.2 force

route add default 192.168.10.1 1 source 192.168.10.2 force

Flags

The values of the count and destination type ﬁelds in the route command determine the presence of the

G and H ﬂags in the netstat -r display and thus the route type, as shown in the following table.
