solaris 10 u5 what happens if no default route configured

Hi,

I am new to solaris 10. What is the procedure the os takes if a default route is not configured? I am using a multihomed server with 4 interfaces. It looked strange to me this morning, because i had not defined a default route it defaulted to making one up, with the ip address of another server on the network?

If no default route configured does it do a broadcast ping on the network and pick a gateway that way? There can be multiple default routes, how is a default route choosen in that case, on a round robin basis?

setting a route in Solaris
