Occasionally one of the wan links may go down so the main router removes the route to that site (ospf). That means that when cacti goes to poll a device on that subnet it is redirected to the main routers default route (internet gateway on same network). When the wan link in question comes back up my server continues to send the traffic to the internet gateway instead of the main router, how do I get it to forget the route? I have left it for weeks and weeks and I always have to go and manually remove the route to the remote device. The servers default-route is to the main router (not the internet gateway). Any suggestions? Andy
