Default gateway question?

dswartz

Forgive me if this is a duplicate - I could swear I hit 'post' on the earlier one, but I don't see it now.  Anyway, I have a DHCP WAN ethernet interface.  It has IPv4/IPv6 gateway both set.  When I reboot (or bounce the interface), the interface status shows:

MTU 1500 · DEFAULT GW 68.160.162.1 | ::

Yet 'netstat -rn' shows this:

gateway:/root # netstat -rn
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt Iface
10.0.0.0        0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0 eth0
68.160.162.0    0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0 eth1
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U         0 0          0 lo

Everything *seems* to be working, but I'm curious where the default route is coming from?  Something hidden?

    I could be wrong here but I am assuming you are running netstat -rn from your workstation?

     

    If so I believe the 127.0.0.0 is your loop back and the 10.0.0.0 appears to be a different NIC Card.  

     

    Sorry if I am getting this wrong, just a guess from what I am seeing.
