Description Psy[H[] 2018-05-10 12:12:26 UTC
Please provide a way to substitute gateway automatically in connection's static routes.
For example if you add a static route to a DHCP connection where gateway is not known beforehand or may change.

One way to do it is via a keyword: This route would substitute keyword "gateway" with current device's gateway.

    routeN=1.2.3.4/32,gateway

Also should react to DHCP changes. If device has no gateway, this route should not be added altogether
