is there a way to use yast to add advanced routes simular to below ?
I'm not aware of a way to setup such advanced routing rules with YaST.
ip rule add from $IP2 table T2
But via the {POST,PRE}_{UP,DOWN}_SCRIPT variables of the /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-* files it's possible to implement it. By this for example it's possible to link the same system to multiple networks. This is some times labled multi homed. You achieve this via the "ip" command. Here you use the rule feature. http://www.policyrouting.org/iproute2.doc.html has a dedicated section about this. The question from the Linux vendor point of view is: do we need to offer more than YaST is able to handle right now?
