<P><FONT SIZE=2>Networking should be configured through the standard Sun files.&nbsp; 
The &quot;default route&quot; for a machine is established by creating the 
/etc/defaultrouter file.&nbsp; That file can simply contain the I.P. address of your 
router (112.113.1.1) or a name such as 'gateway' that can be resolved through the 
/etc/hosts file.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Just setting up the file would require a reboot to take effect.&nbsp; 
To dynamically identify the &quot;default route&quot; to your machine, type</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>/sbin/route add default 112.113.1.1 1&nbsp; (** The last one is 
necessary to indicate the number of &quot;hops&quot; your segment is from the default 
router.)</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>I have a question regarding setting up the 2nd ethernet port to access 
other</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>networks via a router.&nbsp; Here are the details of my system 
setup:</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>AW51C:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 112.113.105.1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Router:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 112.113.1.1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>AW51B:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
106.106.4.4</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Netmask (51C)&nbsp; 255.255.0.0</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>What I am trying to do is access the AW51B from the AW51C.&nbsp; On 
the AW51C, is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>there somewhere where I have to setup the router address so that it 
knows where</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>to send messages that are outside of the local (112.113) 
network?&nbsp; Right now I</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>am getting error messages indicating that the 51C can't access the 
51B network.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks,</FONT>
