adding temporary static routes to Ubuntu router

Question

i usually create permanent static routes and i wanted to know how to make temporary ones (i want them to delete within reboot). i found some ways here on the website but from some reason they didn't work for me (i'm not working with Ubuntu usually)

would appreciate your guidance!

Answer 1

You can use the command ip route to add routes on the fly.

Example :

sudo ip route add 10.10.10.0/24 via 192.168.1.254 # Specific route
sudo ip route add default via 192.168.1.254 # Default route (gw)

This is not persistent.
