The old way was to use /etc/sysconfig/static-routes (which was read by the 
network rc script).  I have a RH 7.3 box sitting next to me, which uses that 
file.  An example is:

eth0 net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.10.22 mss 768

Unfortunately, RedHat changed how it works in 8.0 (and later). I found a web 
site that has some little bit of info on it.  I used the part that shows how 
to get the 7.3 static-routes file working in the later releases.  :)

I hope this helps,
