Hm? In which way is the result different? Can you post it? Both are
setting the default route.

It is said in the page I pointed you to now twice. If you want to set a
device specific route then use
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ethX-route. If you want to set a device
independent static route then place the proper command in
/etc/sysconfig/static-routes. That file is checked by
/etc/init.d/network:
# Add non interface-specific static-routes.
if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/static-routes ]; then
grep "^any" /etc/sysconfig/static-routes | while read ignore
args ; do
/sbin/route add -$args
done
fi
So the line has to be like:
any $net/cidr via $gw
If you just want to set the default route for a device, then the
static-routes is wrong and too no need for an "ip route add default via
12.168.88.254" line anywhere in your system. Setting
GATEWAY=12.168.88.254 in the /etc/sysconfig/network configuration file
is sufficient. Be sure not other GATEWAY parameter is set then in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX files. But all that has been
said now several times.
