From the routing manpage...
Code:
Routing Algorithm
      The routing table entries are of three types:

           +  Entries for a specific host.
           +  Entries for all hosts on a specific network.
           +  Wildcard entries for any destination not matched by entries of
              the first two types.

      To select a route for forwarding an IP packet, the network facilities
      select the complete set of "matching" routing table entries from the
      routing table. A routing table entry is considered a match, if the
      result of the bit-wise AND operation between the netmask in the
      routing entry and the IP packet's destination address equals to the
      destination address in the routing entry.

      The network facilities then select from the set the routing entries
      that have the longest netmask.  The length of a netmask is defined as
      the number of contiguous 1 bits starting from the leftmost bit
      position in the 32-bit netmask field. In other words, the network
      facilities select the routing entry that specifies the narrowest range
      of IP addresses.  For example, the host route entry that has a
      destination/netmask pair of (147.253.56.1, 0xffffffff), is more
      specific than the network route entry that has a destination/netmask
      pair of (147.253.56.0, 0xfffffe00), therefore the network facilities
      select the host route entry. The default route by default has a
      destination/netmask pair of (0,0). Therefore the default route matches
      all destinations but it is also the least specific.  The default route
      will be selected only if there is not a more specific route.

      There may still be multiple routing entries remaining. In that case
      the IP packet is routed over the first entry displayed by netstat -r.
      Such multiple routes include:

           +  Two or more routes to a host via different gateways.
           +  Two or more routes to a network via different gateways.
           +  Two default routes.

      A superuser can change entries in the table by using the route command
      (see route(1M), or by information received in Internet Control Message
      Protocol (ICMP) redirect messages.

NAME
install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system SYNOPSIS
install-solaris install-solaris invokes the Solaris Install program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation, install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer. The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation: For SPARC machines: 128 MB Minimum physical memory for all installation types 128 MB Minimum physical memory required for windowing system 384 MB Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation For x86 machines: 256 MB Minimum physical memory for all installation types 256 MB Minimum physical memory required for windowing system 512 MB Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number of fea- tures available. install-solaris exists only on the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should be invoked only from there. Refer to the for more details. install-solaris allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. install-solaris loads the software available on the installation media. Refer to the for disk space requirements. Refer to the for more information on the various menus and selections. See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWcdrom (Solaris instal- | | |lation media) | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Interface Stability |Evolving | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ pkginfo(1), install(1M), pkgadd(1M), attributes(5) It is advisable to exit install-solaris by means of the exit options in the install-solaris menus. 23 Sep 2005 install-solaris(1M)
