I'm trying to get the default gateway, using the destination 0.0.0.0
I used this command: netstat -rn | grep 0.0.0.0
And it returned this list:
**Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface<br> 10.9.9.17 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0<br> 133.88.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0<br> 0.0.0.0 133.88.31.70 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0**<br> My goal here is to ping the default gateway using destination 0.0.0.0; thus, that is 133.88.31.70; but this one returns a list because of using grep.
How do i get the default gateway only? I will need it for my bash script to identify if net connection is up or not.

When Command Prompt is open, type the following command: ipconfig | findstr /i "Gateway" (You can copy & paste it in the command prompt; just right-click anywhere in the command prompt window and select Paste.) In this example, your default gateway (router) IP address is 192.168. 1.1.
In the "Open:" field, type cmd , and then click OK. This will open the command prompt. At the prompt, enter ipconfig . This will display your network information, including your default gateway.
0.1 and 192.168. 2.254 are the default gateway IP address. The gateway with lowest Metric is the first to be searched and used as the default gateway.
You can get the default gateway using ip command like this:
IP=$(/sbin/ip route | awk '/default/ { print $3 }') echo $IP If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
