>Description:
The issue we are experiencing is that the default route is added before static routes. We have a situation whereby the default route relies on a static route eg

defaultrouter="$private_ip"
ifconfig_xn0="inet $public_ip netmask 255.255.255.255 -tso"
static_routes="xn0"
route_xn0="-host $private_ip -iface xn0"

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
See attached patch file.

Also suggestion to add 'man rc.conf'

Add in the "static_routes" section, Static routes are added before any default route (see defaultrouter).
