Hi!

I was trying to setup my ed0 ether card as the default gateway, and did
not understood how to do it until I used the sysinstall utility to
reconfigure the ed0 card. 

But I still don't understand how it is enabled. I searched the
/etc/directory for any use of the defaultrouter variable, and all I found
is the rc.networks file that mentions an assignement like:

route_default="default ${defaultrouter}"

but the route_default variable is not used anywhere else!!!

How could I have enabled the default route without rebooting?

Thanks!
