The bug report mentions that the clients in the second interface subnet is getting the router that is in the first interface. This is because the installadm code picks up the default router for system and setup the DHCP macro and the client cannot access the router.
From the bug report: nic1 192.168.1.1 ---> router 192.168.1.254 --> connected to internet nic2 192.168.2.1 ---> router 192.168.2.1 --> private network Our macro have router as 192.168.1.254 where as the submitter wanted 192.168.2.1 as the router. By creating network macros for each subnet 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.2.0, we can ensure that the client gets the correct router - Sundar > > Dave >
