Change Default gateway

140295Feb 3 2013 — edited Feb 7 2013
Hi..I have to change default gateway in my linux machine. Its OS is RHEL6.
I followed following steps.
1.run command ip route to check current default gateway
2.delete that gateway with command
route del default gw x.x.x.x eth2
3.Add new gatewy with command below
route add default gateway x.x.x.x eth0
4.Also ensure /etc/sysconfig/network has new gateway entry with eth name in it.
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=N1
GATEWAY=x.x.x.x
GATEWAYDEV=eth0

But when we restart network service it moves back to old gateway.

Kindly let me know how to make it permanent.

Thanks !!
