Command Usage
◆
The default gateway can also be defined using the following Global
configuration command: ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 gateway-address.
◆
Static routes can also be defined using the
traffic to the designated address or subnet passes through a preferred gateway.
◆
A default gateway can only be successfully set when a network interface that
directly connects to the gateway has been configured on the router.
◆
The same link-local address may be used by different interfaces/nodes in
different zones (RFC 4007). Therefore, when specifying a link-local address for a
default gateway, include zone-id information indicating the VLAN identifier
