Does anybody have an example how to do special routing (source-based) with openSUSE Linux and package iproute2?

I'd like to add some rules with command "ip add..." when a specific DSL interface dsl0 is up but I'd like to avoid messing up openSUSE's scripting under /etc/sysconfig/network too much.
Search tldp.org
Maybe I used the wrong key words there...

I already read about how policy routing is enabled on command-line. I'm rather looking for recommendations how to do it in openSUSE 10.3 without having to mess up the standard scripts shipped with openSUSE in /etc/sysconfig/network too much. Hence my posting to alt.os.linux.suse...

Oh yeah, you're really cool. I already knew how to setup a trivial routing table with SuSE Linux since '96.

Did you actually read my original posting? My aim is to set up *source-based* routing (still in citation above). I see nothing in the man-page you mentioned which allows the *source* for a routing table entry to be defined therein. Additionally you cannot specify additional routing tables (as defined in /etc/iproute2/rt_tables).

Ciao, Michael.
