Re: Problems with SMIT and NIC Still Problems

You have to use a chdev to rid your system of that route; try this..

1. /home/root # lsattr -El inet0|grep route
* route net,-hopcount,0,,0,10.128.1.1 Route True
* route net,-hopcount,0,,0,10.131.86.250 Route True
2. Take this statement
* chdev -l inet0 -a delroute=
3. Create this statement
* chdev -l inet0 -a delroute=net,-hopcount,0,,0,10.128.1.1

Hi,
check with "lsattr -El inet0" what your default route in the ODM is. If the
ODM has the correct setting then some script might change the default route
during system startup.

HI!

Thanks!

Unfortunately, after reboot, the old default route returns....

Folks,

I have a problem with smitty saving values to my NIC card.

I had an incorrect default gateway so I reset it through smitty and
rebooted

It went back to the old setting

I even tried to set it in rc.net, but with the same problem.

Here's some additional info:

Hello David,
here's my changing default route:
- first - login console
If your default route disappears, youre network connection might
disappeared too

- save your old routes with
lsattr -El inet0 | grep route | awk '{ print $2 }' > /tmp/routes

- delete routes with
/etc/route -n -f; odmdelete -o CuAt -q "name=inet0 and
attribute=route";savebase

- create new default route with
/usr/sbin/chdev -l inet0 -a
route=net,-hopcount,1,-netmask,255.255.255.0,0,192.168.0.1
This is a default route 0.0.0.0 with 255.255.255.0 mask and 192.168.0.1
gateway.

Use /tmp/routes to rebuild your extra routes.

Have fun!
