Goto "Network base configuration" navigate to the eth0 device you wish
to configure and press F6. The third line down is the gateway address
field. The first one is your IP address, which along with netmask (the
second field) are whats entered into the IFCONFIG_0 parameter.
The gateway address itself is entered into the /etc/route.conf file
toward the bottom.
