Appendix 2 - How to make route delete reboot persistent
1. In a Windows system, go to boot drive root by cd C:\;
2. Use a text editor to create a text file, in which it contains one line:
route delete 10.1.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 10.1.1.200
3. In above file 10.1.0.0 is the network destination, 255.255.0.0 is the
Netmask for the network, and 10.1.1.200 is the farm address, also
is the address for the loopback adapter address.
4. start Scheduled Task in control panel;
5. Click "add Scheduled Task"; then next;
6. "Browse" to the .bat file we created -- like WebMux™.bat under c:\ ;
7. Choose "Perform this task" -- "when my computer starts”.
That will delete the route every time the Windows computer reboots. Please
make sure after “route delete” the only route left in the routing table for the
loopback adapter is this one (your actual IP address and netmask maybe
different):
10.1.1.255 255.255.255.255 10.1.1.200 10.1.1.200 1
All other routes for the loopback adapter must not show in the routing table. On
both Windows and Unix, routing table can be seen by execute this command:
“netstat –rn” .
Please note for Windows 2003 servers, the route for the loopback adapter can
not be deleted. However, since Windows 2003 server automatically taking a
highest metric number, the route does not need to be deleted.
