Well yes, but sometimes you don't have all aspects of the

Yes, this is also exactly what I did. And in the long run,
I will probably split up the network segment thereby fixing
the broken network setup. But despite this, I have got the
feeling that it should be possible to change routes in the
aforementioned way.
