one more question
since I use a fixed IP address in my dormitory and a dynamic IP address
in the classroom or library, i need to change my local NIC configure from
time to time. In fact, I use the fixed IP address as my default setting, which
is as follows:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ifconfig
bge0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=1a<TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING>
inet 59.66.138.109 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 59.66.138.255
ether 00:0d:9d:90:e0:68
media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
status: no carrier
as you can see, it is totally different from the dynamic IP address I can
get. and when I go to a classroom, I use DHCP to change my bge0 settings.
now the question is: since I wanna use my wireless NIC, it seems that it
is not enough that just close bge0 down at this time.
using command "route -n get default" i get:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] route -n get default
route to: default
destination: default
mask: default
gateway: 59.66.138.1
interface: bge0
flags: <UP,GATEWAY,DONE,STATIC>
recvpipe sendpipe ssthresh rtt,msec rttvar hopcount mtu
expire
0 0 0 0 0 0 1500 0
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
so even I have shutted bge0 down, the ping still cannot work correctly.
how can I get things right here?
I think maybe i can change the interface using by route
but "route -q change interface ath0" doesn't work.
it says:
YuanJue# route -q change interface ath0
route: bad address: interface
YuanJue#
what is the right way to do it? or is there any better solution for my
situation?
thanks.
