NET.CFG Options Reference

Protocol TCPIP Option

IP_ROUTER ip_address [network_name]

Specifies the default router address for all packets being sent to remote networks. All other gateways are dynamically discovered using the ICMP redirect mechanism.

Syntax	ip_router ip_address [network_name]
	Replace ip_address with the correct address in
	dotted notation. If this parameter is missing or is
	0.0.0.0, the protocol stack uses BOOTP or Reverse
	ARP to determine the IP address.
	Replace network_name with a descriptive name
	for this network connection. The network name is
	used with the BIND, IP_ADDRESS, and
	IP_NETMASK parameters to distinguish
	between the values for each network connection.
	The network name is required only if you are
	configuring multiple ODI LAN drivers for TCP/
	IP.
Default	None
Example	To set the IP address for your client workstation and
	distinguish your connection to the network, you could
	place the following lines in your NET.CFG file:
	protocol tcpip
	bind ne2000 2 finance-net
	ip_address 129.47.6.84
	ip_router 144.52.6.6 finance-net
	ip_netmask 255.255.0.0 finance-net
