Something like: route add -net 192.168.0.0 eth0 or route add -net 192.168.0.0 dev eth0 You can have the route added automatically by creating a /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-<interface-name> file with the route. I used it with the old format of: 192.168.0.0/24 dev eth0 I am not sure, but I think the new format would be: ADDRESS0=192.168.0.0 NETMASK0=255.255.255.0 or ADDRESS0=192.168.0.0 NETMASK0=255.255.255.0 GATEWAY0=10.10.10.x Remember, your machine does not need an IP address in the network range you are trying to talk to. You just need to know how to get to that network. (Without adding the specific route, your computer would try to use the default route.) You may also have to open a hole in your firewall for the 192.168.0.0 network, depending on your setup.
