| delete NET[/MASK] | Deletes a route from a table. | | [-iface] | Routing through the network interface. An IP-address of the interface through which routing is assigned becomes a gateway IP-address. | | [-nostatic] | All routes that are described using the "route add" command have absolute priority. No dynamic routing protocols including DHCP can replace the static route in the routing table. "nostatic" option deny that. E.g.
