By coincidence I have been hacking on these scripts today too...
The dhclient-script sets the route. If you want to prevent it then
you will have to either prevent dhclient-script from setting it or to
remove it after it has been set.
First:
man dhclient-script
Then browse through the script /sbin/dhclient-script and look at how
it is setting routes.
less /sbin/dhclient-script
Turn on the debug variable script
/etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/debug
by setting RUN="yes" and then look in /tmp/dhclient-script.debug to
see what variables are available.
less /tmp/dhclient-script.debug
Then create a new script at
/etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/no-default-route
and in that script put something similar to this:
case $reason in
BOUND|RENEW|REBIND|REBOOT)
unset new_routers
;;
esac
The above disables the default route. You will probably want more
specific control such as only doing that when certain conditions are
met. Such as if the IP address matches your particular IP address or
some such. But I think this is probably enough to get you going.
WARNING: Be very careful trying this if you are accessing the host
over the network and your connection requires a default route.
Because obviously removing the default route will break your
connection to the host. Connections on the local subnet will be
okay.
Note that the script is sourced into the dhclient-script and that the
dhclient-script is a bash script.
