Impossible to add a default gateway outside attached subnets !

[p.rousset]

Okay, you will say this is not usual, but…  :P

I have to run pfSense in a virtual machine on my server. This server is hosted by OVH which provide me some IP failover that work in XenServer/Vmware. The WAN configuration should be that one (as explained here : http://help.ovh.co.uk/BridgeClient / http://guides.ovh.com/BridgeClient) :

IP: 86.95.150.79/32
Default gateway: 45.15.95.254
Satic route: 45.15.95.254/32 to 86.95.150.79

The problem is that in pfSense you cannot add a default gateway outside the attached subnets, even if there is static route to reach it. I think this is wrong since it's possible in some configuration.

I'm thinking to open an issue, what do you think ?  ???

Not a valid network config, but there are instructions in a feature request ticket in redmine.pfsense.org on how to make that work, not sure the ticket # offhand, look there and you'll find it.

Thank for your advise, the ticket is here: http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/972

Unfortunately, when I type :```
route add -net gatewayip/32 -iface em0 -cloning

Pfsense return me :```
route: bad keyword: cloning

So I tried without the parameter -cloning but I'm not an expert in routing/freebsd, so I don't know if it will really work as expected? Do there is any other way to add the clone flag on pfSense 2?

the -cloning option is no longer supported under FreeBSd 8.x
It should work without the -cloning option
