Persistant Routes
Hi,
On a windows machines, why would there be persistant routes which point to the machines default gateway?
I would have thought if the destination address is not on the local subnet it would be sent to the DG anyways? So why would a machine have persistant routes which point to the DG?

that's all the DFGW is.
Basically its a route that says anything you don't know something more specific about send to this next hop.
so on all device there is a route that says "send any not on your subnet that you don't have a better route to..... "
you have to supply the DFGW address and it fills in the blank for this route. but there is nothing special about the dfgw, it is a route like any other- If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. Albert Einstein
