Regarding your gateway: you appear to have lost your gateway configuration.
Go into
smitty tcpip
minimum
select your main adapter
Enter
This will re-establish your default gateway. It happens sometimes, I don't
know exactly under what circumstances. But I keep an eye out for it.
Regarding the netstat core: At current AIX levels, the netstat -r
frequently
fails like that, as does netstat -a. Something to do with the linked list
changing before
the command reading it finishes. You could try AIX support, but in all of
the pmrs I
have searched, no one seemed to think that was a problem.
Anybody else?

Subject: RE: [NV-L] Network problems preventing status polling and
discovery??
Thanks for the help. Since that tracing and then stop/start of netmon
hasn't caused netmon to do anything different that I've seen, I got to
looking in the netmon.trace file, and found this:
Tue Apr 24 16:59:47 CDT 2001
Note: default gateway not configured. You should ensure
that your network configuration does not require a default gateway.
**** Warnings from /usr/OV/bin/nmcheckconf configuration check script
This started showing up this past Saturday evening when I was attempting to
clear the database and start a rediscovery. Netview had some problems that
I worked with support on, but I did notice this until today. Anyway...
I do have a default gateway:
# netstat -rn
Routing tables
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use If PMTU Exp
Groups
Route Tree for Protocol Family 2 (Internet):
default 162.131.204.10 UGc 0 0 en1 - -
127/8 127.0.0.1 U 16 939760 lo0 - -
Segmentation fault(coredump)

Of course the coredump, isn't a good thing. <SIGH>
Perhaps all of this is related??
