I’m torn between /etc/network and /etc/rc.conf; I feel like I’ve seen both in different contexts.

I’m pretty confident that /etc/rc.conf is the right answer for defining the default gateway on FreeBSD.

I remember practicing a question about network configuration files, and I feel like /etc/gateway was mentioned, but it doesn't seem right for this.

I think the default gateway is set in /etc/rc.conf, but I'm not completely sure.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I don't recognize any of these file paths as the typical location for the default gateway. I'll have to guess and go with option E.

I remember learning that the resolvers are in the /etc/resolvers file, so I'll go with option B.
VE

The gateway is probably in the /etc/gateway file, so I'll select option C.

Hmm, I'm not too sure about this one. I know the network settings are usually in /etc/network, so I'll try option A.

Wait, /etc/red? Really? That's a new one. I think I'll just stick with the classic /etc/rc.conf option.

/etc/red does sound strange. /etc/rc.conf is definitely the file to look at for the default gateway IP address.
CA

Yeah, /etc/red doesn't seem familiar. /etc/rc.conf is the standard for defining the default gateway.
KA

I agree, /etc/red doesn't sound right. /etc/rc.conf is the way to go.
