Trusted Solaris Installation and Configuration

To Set Up Complex Static Routing

  1. Double-click the Set TSOL Gateways action in the System_Admin folder.

    See "To Open a File that has a Defined Action" if you are unfamiliar with using trusted actions.

    An empty /etc/tsolgateways file appears in the trusted editor. See the tsolgateways(4) man page for examples of how to format the file.

  2. Enter the IP address of the net, the name of the gateway and its metric. Repeat for every gateway and save the file.

    For example, if the workstations trustworthy and forwardho are gateways:


    129.150.150.0 trustworthy 1
    129.150.8.0 forwardho 2
    


    Note -

    If the workstation has an /etc/defaultrouter file and an /etc/tsolgateways file, only the /etc/tsolgateways file is used for routing decisions.


  3. Return to the procedure and chapter you are working from.
