Adding the static route:
route add <destination> mask <netmask> <gateway>
Destination = The destination network address.
Netmask = The netmask for the destination network.
Gateway = The gateway/router ip address to route the traffic through.
eg:
route add 192.168.200.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.254
This adds a route for the 192.168.200.0/24 network, so that traffic destined for this network gets routed through 192.168.0.254. The gateway address must be on on the same network subnet that you are on.
To make a route persistent across reboots, make sure to add the “-p” parameter to the route command.
route -p add 192.168.200.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.254
Test connectivity using the ping and tracert (trace route) commands to make sure the destination network is accessible and going via the correct route.
