Disabled route causes interface to become unresponsive

[tverweij]

I have a network adapter for the local network 10.10.20.0/24

Then I add a disabled route: 10.10.20.0/24 -> MyGw
Save - Apply

And then 10.10.20.0/24 is not reachable anymore.

Remove the route - still not reachable

Go to Interfaces, open the interface, press Save and then Apply - and the subnet is reachable again.


As for my understanding - a disabled route should have no effect at all, or am I wrong about that?

It's probably disabling a route that is there by default so that means you don't have to add it.
