Unable to add default gateway on n4000

[Edward J. Segura]

I try and add default gateway and get network unreachable. Although I can ping the default gateway. any ideas why I would get this

[OLARU Dan]

Other hosts on the subnet in which n4000 is located can go to the destination network?

I "yes", check the subnet mask and IP assignments (dns; wins servers) on the n4000.

If "no", then your router does not have a route to the destination network and does not have a default route.

Is the gateway IP address the same as the IP address of the router to which your Ethernet segment is attached?

[The Real MD]

the metric for the gateway needs to be set to >1 or the your machine will think the default gateway is local.

I hope this helps

Thanks guys and I will check into it. I ended up editing the netconf file.
