Hi guys,
I guess IRDP only works if I have all the default gateways which are
advertised by the router interfaces configured on the host ? If I only
configure one default gateway on the host, there is no way the host can
dynamically choose another gateway if that is advertised by the router ?
Example:
Host IP Address: 192.168.17.3
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.17.1
Now let4s say E0 on R1 has IP address 192.168.17.1 that would be the default
gateway for the host. What if I give E0 on R2 IP address 192.168.17.2 and
configure IRDP on that interface with a higher priority than E0 on R1 ?
Since the host only has one default gateway configured, would it pick the
gateway on R2 ?
Thanks for clarifying.
Regards,
Georg
