- Try putting the following statement at the top of /etc/gated.conf
-
- interface xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx passive;
-
- Where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the ip address of the ethernet card to the lab
- subnet. This tells gated to remember the route to this subnet even if
- there is no activity on it for a period of time ( 10 min I think ) .
