Permanent Static Route to Device

elementary OS Asked by BlackSpy on August 28, 2021

Does anyone know how to make the following command permanent in Elementary OS?

route add -host 192.168.1.1 dev wlp0s20f3

This route does exactly what I need, but its not permanent. A reboot of the machine or the network connection will result in it being removed from the IP tables.

I can’t seem to find the files that define the routes for this device (wifi adapter – wlp0s20f3).

One Answer

Type in terminal :

sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

Add at the bottom this:

up route add -net 192.168.1.10/24 gw 192.168.1.1 dev wlp0s20f3

Where 192.168.1.10 is the IP of your machine which you can check with command:

ip a

Restart the networking service by typing in terminal:

sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
