Kind of depends on your distro ? Its usually set in the startup scripts with some distros. You can also set it with this command:

route add default gw [ip address]

man route for more details.

If you use RedHat as distro check /etc/sysconfig/network and add GATEWAY=... to it or edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and add GATEWAY=... to that file
