1. newbie question - IP configuration for new internet server on network with multiple IP blocks
I'm a newbie to Solaris so this may be a simple question.
I have just setup a new Solaris 2.6 x86 server. The server works fine
when I give it an IP address that is in the same class C as the
router's class C address. However, if I give it an IP that is not
within the same class C as the router it is unable to see any other
address that is outside of the non-router IP block.
I am going to move the server to another network (co-location) and
there is a very high chance that the IP address will not fall within
the same IP block as the router so I need to resolve this.
/etc/defaultrouter
I set the etc/defaultrouter to the router's address, no <cr> or spaces
/etc/netmasks
updated the file with class c and netmask 255.255.255.0
e.g.
192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
192.169.25.0 255.255.255.0
I tried:
route add default $gateway <router address>
but it said it was unreachable
I also updated the following, but I don't believe they make a
difference.
/etc/nsswitch.conf
modified the line:
hosts: files dns
/etc/hosts
added the nameserver IP and fully qualified internet domain name
/etc/resolv.conf
domain domainname
nameserver ns1
nameserver ns2
