RE: Default Gateway
On dial-up connections you do not need to define a default-gateway since the
only way you have to reach
the rest of the internet is through the dial-up connection. In a LAN
environment (ethernet segment for example)
multiple gateways can be accesed and you need to define to which send your
IP packets destined to the Internet.
That is the reason why you do not need to define a default gateway on a
dial-up connection.

Asunto: Default Gateway
Hi,
There is something I cannot understand properly.
Any kind of information will be appreciated.
I use a dial-up account (CompuServe). When I check my IP configuration ,I
see that my default gateway is the same as my IP address and the subnet mask
is 255.255.255.255.
IP Address: 172.135.35.162
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.255
Default Gateway : 172.135.35.162
What I cannot understand is how can my computer reachs the sources on the
internet while the default gateway is itself. I checked my computer's route
table ,it also doesn't have enough information to go outside.
Thank you for your helps.
Emre
