SAN Router’s date and time manually using the drop-down
lists in the

Configuring the Router Inband and Gateway Address
NOTE:
In Element Manager, the default gateway is represented as a “default
route” in the routing table by specifying a destination address and a mask of
“0.0.0.0”. That is, all traffic not matching a more specific entry in the routing
table will be sent to the “next hop” listed in the default route. The default
route and the default gateway address are the same thing.
