            Bug ID: 253620
           Summary: Calling route delete with an invalid gateway deletes
                    the route
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.2-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: lgupta@blackberry.com

I would have expected to see an ESRCH if the provided gateway does not match
the destination specified. See log below.

I can then also delete the destination subnet route and that causes all tra=
ffic
to fail.

root@lgbsd:~/Desktop # route delete -net 192.168.180.0/24 10.11.12.13
delete net 192.168.180.0: gateway 10.11.12.13

root@lgbsd:~/Desktop # ping 192.168.180.1
