Find default gateway in terminal

[macshaun]

Hi All,

Currently running OSX 10.5 and was wondering if anyone knows how to find your gateway address in Terminal? IFCONFIG only appears to show the IP address. I know you can find it via System Preferences > Network but would like to know if it is possible to find it via terminal.

Try:

netstat -nr

or

netstat -nr | grep '^default'

Thanks for that.
