I was under the impressions that the gateway of last resort was a actual
interface on the router. if a router had two interfaces one 10.1.1.1/16 and
10.1.2.1/16 and 10.1.2.1 was connected to a firewall that has a address of
10.1.2.2 that the gateway of last resort would be 10.1.2.1 not 10.1.2.2
I understand the gateway of last resort to be the destination of where the
traffic should be forwarded. Hence gateway, not local interface of last
resort :)
It really dosen't matter if on a point-to-point network, because you'd
forward the traffic out the interface and the other side would
