Well, as one of the "others",_I_ didn't get it. :)

As I said, read the interfaces manpage. It says you can run any command
you want, and use the "up" option as many times as you want. While it
probably would be cleaner in the interfaces file to invoke it once on a
script, the following should work also:
---/etc/network/interfaces------
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.147.1
network 192.168.147.0
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.147.0
up route add -net 192.168.140.0/24 gw 192.168.147.3 || true
up route add -net 192.168.144.0/24 gw 192.168.147.2 || true
up route add -net 192.168.145.0/24 gw 192.168.147.2 || true
up route add -net 192.168.146.0/24 gw 192.168.147.2 || true
down route del -net 192.168.146.0/24 gw 192.168.147.2 || true
down route del -net 192.168.145.0/24 gw 192.168.147.2 || true
down route del -net 192.168.144.0/24 gw 192.168.147.2 || true
down route del -net 192.168.140.0/24 gw 192.168.147.3 || true

I think they are applied to the interface through which the specified
gatway is reached.
