Yes, but the CCIE labs are supposed to be for ISP level engineers, who almost certainly won't be using default routes most of the time. It should be assumed that by the time you get to the CCIE level you have much experience in default routing.

Cisco hardly helps this by discriminating against static and default routes in the CCIE lab. **Please support GroupStudy by purchasing from the GroupStudy Store: http://shop.groupstudy.com FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=75184&t=75050 -------------------------------------------------- **Please support GroupStudy by purchasing from the GroupStudy Store: http://shop.groupstudy.com FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html
