Do I need to reboot following a defaultrouter change?

Hi,

If u want to use the new settings , you can

a) inject the new default route to the existing routing table

route delete default <old-gateway>

route add default <new-gateway>

Note: Don't delete the old gateway info if you are logged in over the network from a remote network .

b) Restart the network services .

Pre-Solaris 10

/etc/init.d/inetinit stop

/etc/init.d/inetinit start

/etc/init.d/inetsvc stop

/etc/init.d/inetsvc start

Solaris 10 <

svcadm restart network ( i am not too sure of this )

Hope this helps

Rgds
