Trusted Solaris Installation and Configuration

Set Up Static Routing

If you set up static routing on the NIS+ master, set it up on the clients.

  1. Determine the appropriate static routing for the client.

    Table 6-1 Client Static Routing Entry

     

    Client on same subnet 

    Client on different subnet 

    NIS+ master has 1 network interface 

    Use same entry as NIS+ master's 

    Static routing will be slightly different for the subnet 

    NIS+ master has >1 network interface 

     

    Enter NIS+ master's other network interface(s) in static routing file 

     

  2. As root, at label admin_low, enter the defaultrouter using the Set Default Routes action, or the tsolgateways using the Static Routing Configuration action.

    See "Set Up Routing" for more explanation.

  3. Save the file and exit the editor.

  4. As root, at label admin_low, add the static routers and the NIS+ master to the client's local hosts database using the Database Manager.

    See "To Open and Modify a Solstice_Apps Database" if you are unfamiliar with editing the Hosts database.

  5. Exit the Database Manager.
