Added support for it here.. gotta wait for the maintainers to check if they like it and i can send out a pull request https://github.com/baldoarturo/netbox-routing/commit/27586503d68fde1880330ccff4c8e81d2cb1d593

I am good with this. One thing to note: You are missing the required migration to make this work in your commit.

This could also be useful with nmcli when setting static routes on REHL.

This could be done through a custom field as a workaround while waiting for the PR to be merged.
