AIX and Default Gateways

[tobyheywood]

Hi,

I have just inherited a AIX 5.2 system which when rebooted appears to reinstate gateways for subnets which no longer exist.

Can anyone point me in the dirrection of some useful information. So far reading the manual has not really proved helpful but mind numbing.

I'm not sure if the routes are stored in a file some where or if it is using some sort of automatic route table propagation.

Any feedback suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Take a look at how your primary network interface is configured - smitty tcpip (shortcut) - Minimum Configuration $ Startup. This will show you Hostname, IP, Network Mask, Nameserver, Default Gateway etc. If you want to reconfigure you need to do so using a serial console connection or equivalent. Good Luck
