How to save Static Route via command line 'route'

[Jason Morrill]

I'm running a basic Windows 2000 server. I have a number of routes set
up but the computer is not a router. The routes are simply local
routes to tell the server where to send data when a request comes in.

Example:
The server default gateway is 10.1.1.254
A request comes from 10.1.2.90
Server response through 10.1.1.252 (NOT the default gateway)

All works well. Then I reboot the server and it forgets the static
routes I set up with the route command.

How can I save the static local routing table so it survives a reboot?

Thanks!

Either 'route help' or 'route /?' or 'route -h' provides more help. Read
about -p switch and proper syntax.
