Dear folks,
How can delete the gateway from smitty or by command, Because I have 2 gatway in the system and I tried to delete by smitty it gave me failed command

Code:

route delete <dest_ip> <gw_ip>

But check the ODM too (if it's a Def. GW) maybe with

Code:

odmget -q "name=inet0" CuAt
# or
lsattr -El inet0

and delete the unwanted entry with odmdelete.

Since I had problems when I deleted duplicate Def. GW entries even from ODM and having them back again after a reboot, I always write a new boot image now, when doing such changes

Code:

bosboot -ad /dev/ipldevice

what do you means by destination address?

zaxxon · #4 (**permalink**) 06-23-2008

Gateways always point to some network or host. So when you do a "netstat -rn" and look at your routing table, you get one column called "Destination".

I already explained you how to purge it. Where is the problem?
