I don't think so. The confnet structure specifies the initialization
values, which are used during boot with valid EEPROM contents.
NutIpRouteAdd() is used by the initialization to set the value
found in the EEPROM or by the application in case the EEPROM
content is invalid (no MAC address).

Generally this all is a big mess. :-) IMHO, updating the EEPROM
within NutIpRouteAdd() will not simplify the code but add more
problems.
