in my experience with having two default routes on a router, they've
load-shared across those two interfaces/links.

For example, we had a router with a fibre connection and also a wireless
connection.  The router had two default routes - one across fibre, one
across wireless.  The fibre went down and half the packets were getting
lost, which screamed "load-sharing" to me.  I removed the default route
across fibre and it worked fine. 

Cheers,

In Todd Lammle's book for CCNA 640-407, on p. 202 he has set a default
route
of BOTH 172.16.40.2 and 172.16.20.1.  How does one do this, just enter
the
IP route command as such, one right after the other (??):

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 162.16.40.2
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 162.16.20.1

???


The reason I ask is that in his book for CCNA 640-507, he states on page
253, "Default routing is used to send packets with a remote destination
network not in the routing table to the next hop router.  You can only
use
default routing on stub networks, which means that they have only one
exit
port out of the network."

The two books seem to say contradictory things.  Is it because the 507
exam
is based on a different IOS?  What gives?
