Hi,
I've noticed that the route was not correctly set. Where all "route"
commands set this route with the destination netmask (Genmask) to
0.0.0.0, toolbox's route was setting the netmask as 255.255.255.255
which made the network unreachable.
Applying the attached patch, I have a working route, and now all the
traffic is correctly redirected through my network interface.
Is this patch crazy? Why it was written setting the netmask as if it
were for a specific host instead of a network?
If it's ok, I'll send it to gerrit to be included.
Kind regards,
