Check the routing table for different destinations from this machine (with host name resolved)

route

Without host name resolved

route -n

The output should show:

  • For the addresses in the same subnet, it should not need to reach to gateway (so the gateway shall be 0.0.0.0)
  • For the ‘default’ destination (i.e. 0.0.0.0), it should reach to the gateway server
    • The gateway server shall be the DHCP server of the subnet.
