6.4.2 Configuring Default Gateway
Imagine in large network and internetworks every router cannot know the exact route to every
other router. This is where the default gateway (sometimes call default route) is useful. The
default route specifies where to send non-local packets. The router will know what to do with it.
If the next router doesn't know the necessary route, it sends the packet to its own default gateway,
and this process continues on until the destination network is reached. Configuration of default
gateway is performed under
Configuration Routing Table.
