First, 2.6.16 is 8 years old.
Second, by now there are 100's of known vulnerabilities; such a system
 would be a sitting duck for remote exploitation.
Third, multiple route tables in Linux was implemented much earlier
 than that, back in the 2.4 development. It is probably in the 2.6.16
 kernel. Most likely the vendor config or tools you have are broken
 and don't allow access to it.
