1. Laziness 2. Not seeing any problems, therefore thinking all is good 3. As you said the "it was like that when I got here and nobody asked me to change it" 4. I saw a configuration on Google once that did this, and it seemed like a good idea

For a point-to-point /30, I suppose it's not really a problem. I imagine that the reason a lot of people do this is because "it was like that when I got here". Either that, or some like the benefit of a lower admin distance, as I believe that a static route to next-hop has a distance of 1 in Cisco routers, whereas a static route to an interface is 0. That said, I think it's the former. :-) -evt _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
