If you already have a router, you should use that to do your dirty work.
If you mean to say your gated machine is at that address, you will need
to create a gated configuration file. The web site has a very good set of
documentation [including sample BGP scripts]
I haven't setup a BGP config file in a while, but I suspect you will need
a config similar to below. Add more a.b.c.0 lines for each of your class
C's. Gated is a VAST speed improvement over routed in even point-to-point
IP connections, just FYI.

interfaces {
interface all passive;
};
export proto bgp
{
# broadcast;
proto bgp
{
a.b.c.0 metric 1;
} ;
};
