Subject: network: Create route to gateway
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0be884d6b222193419ddd3fdff02e7348fe92faf;p=people%2Fms%2Fipfire-2.x.git

network: Create route to gateway

Some hosters have their gateway in a different subnet than
the RED interface is to save IPv4 address space.

This patch sets a host route to that gateway so that
IPFire can be installed in data centres that use such
technique.
