  Is there any way to set an MAC address that is given every time to VNIC on the external interface ? (like in /usbkey/config)

  And why even if I set admin_gateway and headnode_default_gateway to a different address then what dhcp server gives for gateway, DHCP server gateway is nonored

  honored

  And when I set static IP in config for external vnic, vnic does not get up, only with dhcp (that I can't control MAC address and then IP)

  Point is that external connection is faster and is meant to serve some service and admin is slow and I want faster updates through alternative gateway on admin network..

  admin_gateway= and headnode_default_gateway= in /usbkey/config gets ignored on reboot, even if admin Ip is set via admin_ip= ..

  maybe because ipv4 routing is disabled in the global zone ..?

  Or the only way is to set gateway IP on DHCP server itself on admin network..

  Isn't it normal to want to set gateway IP statically for a machine and not get one over DHCP?
