To change the dafault gateway in a linux box, first you will need to login to your server as superuser. if you are unuser what your superuser account is, please contact us. otherwise continue.

now that you are logged in as root, the network configuration setting are located in the network file, this is were you can find the default gateway settings so send this command to edit the network file:

SHELL COMMAND:
nano /etc/sysconfig/network

NOTE: i am using nano as my text editor. however, if you wish, you can use vi as a substitute.

the file should look something like this:
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=host.domain.com
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1


as you can see from my configuration, my default gateway is set to 192.168.1.1 - now you can change it, after you have made the changes, restart your network with this commmand:

SHELL COMMAND:
/etc/init.d/network restart


done. thats it, this is how you setup your default gateway in linux/unix. as you can see, changing your default gateway is easy with these steps
