Not a job that many users do, or very often!

Well, as a unix person (I guess it's probably not real UNIX, tho'), it's
time for a shell script, or a nice perl script. (sorry, there's no such
thing as a nice perl script!).

Well, that's what I'd do...been using UNIX etc. for just on 29 years
now... but the last time I made routing changes was when I got a bigger
IP block from my ISP!

Ever heard of shell scripts / batch files?

Definitely shell scripts. Or some perl if you want to get fancy.
