I am trying to remove the second 'outside' route

firewall(config)# show route
outside 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 63.27.159.113 xx1 OTHER static
outside XX.27.159.112 255.255.255.240 .27.159.126 1 CONNECT static
inside 192.168.100.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.100.100 1 CONNECT static

mckenna(config)# no route outside xx.27.159.112 255.255.255.240 xx.27.159.126 1
Route already exists

Very frustrating. Could someone give me a hand...
in addition to posting, mind emailing pix@bigdon.com. Sorry if this is a basic question...

Moderators, delete previous post, it had no subject.
 
You can't delete that route and there's no reason to.

63.27.159.113 is your default route that you already defined in your config. The route line that you're referring to, 63.27.159.112 is the network number for your /28 subnet your ISP assigned to you. I'm betting the .126 address used to be your default gateway? The pix usually associates it's outside network address with the default gateway.

You can try rebooting the pix or if you can't, try 'clear arp', which may or may not reassociate the route.


If you're still having probs, let us know.

Hi, you could not delete the default route "CONNECT static" that was created automatically by PIX. however you can modify the subnet mask, where the outside interface belongs to, try to limit the range of the subnet in outside interface.

if you only got 1 external ip address for your external PIX interface, use this subnet mask 255.255.255.254.
for example:
ip address outside 63.27.159.126 255.255.255.254

so the rest of external ip addresses will be route by the pix to the gateway you have been defined.
for example:
route outside 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 63.27.159.113 1
