Hi friend,

Thanks

Hello,

You already got an answer that might work
in your environment:

# netstat -rn

Be aware, however, that most security-aware
sites block ICMP in DMZ, so classical
tools like netstat(1), arp(1), ping(1),
and traceroute(1) might not be useful.

In fact, I work on many projects and
customers who absolutely block almost
everything in DMZ. For example, my
HP-UX servers cannot even ping the default gateway! And yet, what needs to work, does work.

I recently had a networking admin complain
to me that he was not able to ping
interfaces on HP-UX servers :) I politely
told him that he would have to use other
types of checks (like opening the specific
ports and test if they respond).

If ICMP is blocked, you might like to use
other tests. Nmap probes are very useful,
for example. There are many similar tools.

Typically, to work out what happens in DMZ,
you should "attack" it from three segments:

External network
DMZ itself
Internal network

Cheers,
