B: Setting the default route on Solaris is easy. If you are trying to just set the route temporarily you can use the route command:

Route add default

Example:

Route add default 192.168.1.1

Note: Route command manipulates the kernel routing tables. Routing is the process of forwarding a packet from one computer to another. It is based on the IP address in the IP packet header and netmask.

F: If you want the route to be persisted when you reboot the system, you will need to set the route in the /etc/defaultrouter file.

/etc/defaultrouter

Example:

Echo 192.168.1.1 > /etc/defaultrouter
