hi,

edit /etc/rc.config.d/netconf
or use SAM - Networking - hosts - modify gateway

good luck,
Thierry.

There are 2 options
1. either set the default route on HP servers to you new router you would be conneting for WAN and have the entire routes configured on the router for WAN and LAN.
2. Connect the router for WAN in the lan and have your routes configured on it to access the remote site and configure default route of HP servers to the router which has access to the WAN router.
To configure the routes use either /etc/rc.config.d/netconf or add them through script using route command. Have a look at man pages of route for more information.

Cheers

Hi

#netstat -rn
there should be a entry for
default xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx UG 0 0 lan0 1500

if you don't have one you can add it whith

route add xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1

look at the man pages for route

than you can add it like the above messages in netconf file.

Hi David,

you can define the default gateway through SAM or by editing the /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file. Take a look at the link below,

Hope this helps.
