IP classless/Default routes
Actually, I believe this is incorrect. If you enter two static default routes with the same administrative distance (in this case 1) then (depending on any configured maximum paths statement, I believe the default is 4) the router will load balance using both addresses. If the router will load balance on per-packet or per-destination basis will depend on the switching method used. The reason one of your default routes dissapear when you disconnect one of your ethernet segments is that the route to your next hop address for that default route dissapears. If a router does not have a route to the next hop address then it will not install that route into the route table even though it is statically configured. To test this scenario using your previous example try adding a static route to 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 with a next hop address of 10.1.2.3. When both ethernet interfaces are up you won't see that new static route for 10.1.1.3 in the table because the administrative distance for that route is 1. The router as a connected route with an administrative distance of 0 out it's ethernet interface for that network. As soon as you remove the cable from the ethernet interface with 10.1.1.1 connected to it (e0/0) the static route for 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 with next hop 10.1.2.3 will show up. At the same time both default statics will remain in the routing table and be used in a load sharing state.

I believe that is a mistake in Todd's book. You can only have one default gateway set. Otherwise the packet would not know where to send the packet.

Re: IP classless/Default routes
No, there is nothing incongruous here. You add the static route for the default route which tells the router that "if you don't know where the destination is, just shove it out over here". Lammle has to use the two static route commands because router B is in the middle of two networks. So when router B doesn't know of the destination it has to shove the packet out two sides so that each of the other networks can take a look at it and decide what to do with it. It is this kind of confusion that leads to the use of synamic protocols rather than static routes.

Usually, you can substitute 'public' for 'customer' if the document is publicly available (which this one is) http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/105/default.html Bob -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2000 11:28 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: IP classless/Default routes Dave, If you have a CCO login check this page out.

RE: IP classless/Default routes
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.

Re: IP classless/Default routes
You are correct, equal cost static routes are load balanced on Cisco routers. That's why in a case like that you would want 1 of the statics to have a higher admin weight assigned to it. So the wireless could be ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.16.2.10 200 and the fiber could be ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.2.10 The static with the lower admin cost will be installed in the route table until the link goes down. Then the other will be installed. Every routing protocol has an admin weight assigned to it. Static and connected routes also have them. Take a look in the docs and you'll find all the defaults.
