Gunaseela,

Try to do it like this:

Edit the /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file.

ROUTE_DESTINATION[0]=default
ROUTE_GATEWAY[0]=17.94.3.5

Regards,

Jaime.

Gunaseela,

Also you might need to stop and start the service for the changes to take effect /sbin/init.d/net .

Regards,

Jaime.

I am already having one entry in
ROUTE_GATEWAY[0]=xx.xx.xx.xx to connect to my another branch. Then how can i give this proxy address.

Gunaseela,

Ok, the ideal thing, would be to have your defualt gateway as the connection to the internet and add a static route to your branch office.

This is thinking that you want to connect to the internet through the command line, on the other side if you just want to use a browser to connect to the internet, just use the settings on it to configure the proxy server and add this one to the /etc/hosts file.

Regards,

Jaime.
