Thanks again chewitt

issuing the command produced an error. The OS wanted an [Install] section added to the file. I added the section with a WantedBy directive and arbitrary picked kodi.target for the value.

Once it was added it I ran the 'systemctl enable /storage/.config/system.d/add-route.service' command again which worked and upon reboot the route is added.

Thanks for the help!

My file add-route.service looks like this:

[Unit]
Description=Add network routes
After=network-online.target
Wants=network-online-target

[Service]
ExecStart=/bin/sh -c 'ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 via 192.168.0.10'

[Install]
WantedBy=kodi.target

Thanks chewitt

Good catch on the full path.

I've made the change but the route still isn't being added at boot.

As a test, I've run systemctl start add-routes.service and that successfully adds the route. Is it possible that system.d isn't calling services from the directory at boot?

Hi

I'm attempting to add a persistent route using the method described and it's not working for me.

Running LibreElec 11.0.1 on an Pi 4, I've created a file in /storage/.config/system.d called add-route.service with the following;

[Unit]
Description=Add network routes
After=network-online.target

[Service]
ExecStart=sh -c 'ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 via 192.168.0.10'

when I reboot the box the route is not added.

Am I missing a step?
