The only reason for this to happen (at least that I can see) is that the interface numbers change. Within the entriesfile we keep the interface number (RINT) and when performing the "route add" or when showing the settings in the GUI we use that parameter. If the numbers of the interfaces change or new are added or some removed then the interface number will indeed change and this could cause this behaviour.

Under one of the entries on the NETWORK tab, I have the entry create a temporary route so it can check a specific router just outside of our network. It’s been running clean for the past couple months. Today I rebooted the machine SA is on since Windows updates wanted to. When it came back up the INTERFACE option on that NETWORK tab changed from the local NIC to the loopback interface, thus causing the check to fail. I first upgraded to 7.0.2525 to see if that would resolve it and it didn’t. So I changed it manually, saved it and ran it again and it worked. I also restarted the machine again and the change to the local NIC stuck. So I am unable to recreate the issue, but this isn’t the first time this has happened with this particular setting. I have this route creation setup in multiple entries under different groups. All the options related to the interface changed to the Loopback interface. Though it is not a big or critical issue, it does happen randomly and will catch you off guard. Like I said I cannot recreate it consistently so I don’t know if there is much that can be done to resolve it.
