Hi Godswill, Thanx for reply.I agree with u,but Still the doubt persists if both the commands are used then both entries come to the route table.As per your and mine theory also only better administrative distance should come into the route table,but here both are introduced into the route table ,as it seems it has administrative distance of 1 for default gateway of its own interface(obviosly zero is preffered then one)? Why both entries in route table. As confusion is creating from different answers so please reply ,so that all confusions are over. Regards, Munit
