"resolvectl query _gateway" will tell you that the gateway's set

I think I misunderstand.

$ resolvectl query _gateway
_gateway: resolve call failed: Could not activate remote peer.
grep myhostname /etc/nsswitch.conf
$ grep myhostname /etc/nsswitch.conf
hosts:      files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns myhostname
As Ed G's pointed out, you need "systemd-resolved" to be running to be
able to use "resolve".

You can use "getent ..." or even "ping -c1 _gateway".

He keeps saying he doesn't want to use ping as he isn't interested in what I would term 
"up".  :-)


I am after "configured" not "functioning"


OK.  I've got plenty of experience in producing non-functioning configurations. 
 :-) :-)



This stuff goes into my iptables firewall script.
It is "presumed" that the networking is done
correctly, although I print out instructions on
how to correct things when I find them
missing/mis-configured.

Ya, I am pretty good at those "non-functioning
configurations" too.
