Hi,

you're wrong, the broadcast is the address for the net not for
the gateway.
Setup yur server with
ifconfig eri0 192.168.2.160 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.2.255 up

Put your hostname in /etc/hostname.eri0
put hostname and ip-address in /etc/inet/hosts
<your hostname> 192.168.2.160
put netmask in /etc/inet/netmasks
192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0

Then your settings will apply at reboot.
