what is the prompt command of this rc.conf entry

2004-01-28 Thread Didier WIROTH
Hi,
Defining the default gateway in rc.conf is:
defaultrouter=10.0.0.10

How do you define this from the command prompt, what is the command I would
have to use to make 10.0.0.10 as my default gateway?

many thanks

You can examine the routing table by:

% netstat -r

There will be quite a lot of output, especially if you have IPv6
enabled, but the line you want will be pretty clear.  See netstat(1)
for a bunch of other options.

To set the default route do:

# route add net default 10.0.0.10

Cheers,

Matthew
