When you are finished adding entries, the Work with TCP/IP Interfaces display
looks like Figure 4.
Note: Any change to the TCP/IP interfaces configuration, except for the automatic
start parameter, takes effect immediately.
Step 3—Configuring TCP/IP Routes
Do you need to add routes at all?
If you have several individual networks to which the server is not directly
attached, you must add routing entries to allow the server to reach these
remote networks.
If your server is attached to a single network and if there are no IP routers in
your network, you do not need to add routes.
To reach remote networks, at least one routing entry is required. If no routing
entries are manually added, your server cannot reach systems that are not on the
