Brian,

Since you are running V6.1, I assume you have UCX V4.1 or V4.2.
In that case issue the following commands while logged in as SYSTEM

$ UCX
UCX> SET ROUTE /DEFAULT/GATEWAY=host /PERMANENT

where "host" is either a hostname or an IP-address.

Success.

And the same command without /permanent to update the volatile db.

Brian,

If you are using Multinet for your IP stack, the command to look at it would be:

$ multinet configure/interface
NET-CONFIG> show

To change it, from the net-config prompt, type:

NET-CONFIG> set default-route xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Of course, replacing the xxx with the desired IP address.

Also
if you will see current gateway
UCX>SHOW ROUTE
if you need define new node
UCX>SET HOST name /ADDR=ip_address
For help
UCX>HELP
If you need configure TCPIP
@SYS$MANAGER:UCX$CONFIG
