Description of problem:
You have to device how will static routes set. Right now ifup-routes exits if it
does not find /etc/sysconfig/netrowking/devices/DEVICE.route, This is the file
which from it reads static routes parameters in some newer format.
The static routes can alsoo be defined in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-DEVICE, acording to ifup-routes. But if we
choose to set up static routes only in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-DEVICE, nothing will happen, because
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/DEVICE.route does not exist.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.echo '10.100.100.0/23 via 10.100.102.1' >>
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/routes-eth8
2. ifup eth8
3. ip rou sh dev eth8 | grep 10.100.100.0


Actual Results:  The static route to 10.100.100.0/23 via gateway 10.100.102.1 is
not present into main routing table.
