I can't reproduce this.

When I install from the OI-hipster-text-20211031.iso it does not enable 
routing/route.


Also my OpenIndiana system (Dell Precision 3640 with 2 NIC, 1 e1000g0 and 1 
igb0)
is not running in.routed, route:default) and is fairly up to date with recent 
OI.

I didn't have to disable in.routed or route:default , by default it was NOT 
enabled.

When I install from the OI-hipster-text-20211031.iso

$ cat OI-hipster-text-20211031.iso.sha256sum 
08d938497dfb39ab51da598437cc4cadcad9c936a9371c58520fe8e99431e86d  
OI-hipster-text-20211031.iso

after the install (where I selected "Automatic" for the NIC, a single NIC), I 
login and

routeadm shows : IPV4routing disabled

Udo Grabowski will be pleased to read that :-)

Can you be more specific please and check the "nwadmadm list" on your server and
/var/sadm/system/logs/install_log.

Maybe there is a specific scenario where indeed route:default is enabled, 
as also confirmed in https://www.illumos.org/issues/14006

In fact the bug report 14006 refers to the manpage of routeadm which describes 
some conditions where routing is ENABLED indeed, so there is something that can 
indeed enable route:default accidentally.

However the bug report 14006 does not say this is OpenIndiana specific, it is a 
Illumos bug report possibly for a different distribution ?

However when I test this , I have no /etc/defaultrouter and route:default is 
not enabled.

For me on my test system "nwamadm list" shows "ncp Automatic online".

in.routed is not running, routeadm shows all disabled 

I mean: the command routeadm after a fresh install of 202110 shows IPv4 and 
IPv6 forwarding and routing disabled.

Note however that the installer has multiple options, so I installed using 1 
NIC here and choose network type 'Automatic'.

Finally to touch a painful issue:   the type 'Automatic' is possible NOT the 
best choice for servers.

The documentation 
http://docs.openindiana.org/handbook/systems-administration/#configuring-networking
writes:

"While usually server and desktop installations tend to use default network 
configurations, laptop users can leverage nwam network configuations."

So that doc positions NWAM as a solution for 'laptop users'.  Opinions may 
differ ...
