Route Add

Question

_{Monday, November 6, 2017 7:03 AM}

Hi,

I need to add a route in windows routing table having a range of subnets starting from 172.16.21.0 to 172.16.60.0 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0 for all subnets instead of entering all the subnets manually. Is it possible?

Thanks.

Yes, it is possible.

We could add the following route "route ADD 172.16.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 gateway" in command line.

It will add all subnets having 172.16.0.0. I need to add only from 172.16.21.0 till 172.16.60.0.

Hi,

Thank you for your warm reminder.

Please try to run "route add 172.16.21.0 mask 255.255.254.0 gateway" and "route add 172.16.60.0 mask 255.255.254.0 gateway" to check again.

getting the below error:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>route add 172.16.21.0 mask 255.255.254.0 172.16.51.1
The route addition failed: The parameter is incorrect.

172.16.51.1 is the default gateway.

Hi,

I think the default gateway should be 172.16.21.1, please check the issue again with this.

no the default gateway is correct.

Hi,

Sorry for my mistake.

I have tested the issue on my side, we could run command line "route add 172.16.21.0 mask 255.255.255.0 172.16.51.1 if 12" (check your interface and modify the number) to achieve your goal.

Hi,

I created a list of all the subnets in notepad and then copied in CMD.

Thanks.
