This topic describes how to add a new route for the IBM support network after the VPN connection has been established using the IBM Connection Manager.
Perform the following steps to add an additional subnet route.

WAN (PPP/SLIP) Interface ======================================================================
The support network interface is identified as the WAN (PPP/SLIP) Interface. The number given is in hex and must be converted to decimal (for example, 0x2000004 (hex) = 33554436 (decimal)).
route ADD 198.74.64.0 MASK 255.255.252.0 [remote_support_IP] IF [IF_decimal_number] Metric 2
Where remote_support_IP is the master console IP address determined in step 1 and IF_decimal_number is the interface number determined in step 2 (for example, route ADD 198.74.64.0 MASK 255.255.252.0 168.74.64.60 IF 33554436 Metric 2).
