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.

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.
