Figure 4. Static Route Example 1
Default route example 1: When the HP router has a small number
of directly connected networks and has a single connection to another
router or router backbone, a default route can be configured to the other
router. The example shown in figure 5 shows that routing updates need
not be sent from router 2 to router 1, because all traffic not for the Red
or White networks can be sent to router 2, thereby preserving band-
width inbound to router 1. The Red and White networks attached to
router 1 are included in routing tables on all the other routers, so the
Red and White networks are reachable by all. Network interface 3 on
router 1 is a default route to the other routers; interface A on router 2 is
the next hop. RIP Supply will be configured, but RIP Listen, Default
Route Supply, and Default Route Listen will not be configured. Cost is
not applicable. Network interface A on router 2 is not configured as a
default route. RIP Listen will be configured, but RIP Supply, Default
Route Supply, and Default Route Listen will not be configured.
