This is wrong: -iface does _not_ take an argument (fxp0 is interpretated
as netmask here!). Also, a link address has to be specified
with a leading separator if you do not specify an interface at the start
(see linkaddr(3); this is not documented in route(8)!).
The correct call would be:
route add -host 10.20.30.40 -link :0:a:b:c:d:e -iface -static
or, if you explicitely want to use fxp0
route add -host 10.20.30.40 -link fxp0:0:a:b:c:d:e -iface -static

I add a static link-level route with route(8), and when I look it up with netstat(8), the first octet of the ARP address is missing. Once this routing table entry is in place, the destination becomes unreachable, and the "use" flag on the entry never increments. How-To-Repeat: # route add -host 10.20.30.40 -link 0:a:b:c:d:e -iface fxp0 -static add host 10.20.30.40: gateway 0:a:b:c:d:e # netstat -nr | grep 10.20.30.40 10.20.30.40 a:b:c:d:e UHLS 0 0 fxp0 ^^^^^^^^^
