Default Gateway: When the router isn't acting like a router, more like a
client: IE auto install, or something like that

Default network: Send it "that direction" "they" know what to do with it

Default route: Send it to "him" "he" knows what to do with it.

You can have a default gateway on an interface, it will do NOTHING while the
router is routing.

You cannot put a default network to an IP. You have to point it to a
network. There are some "unique" things that go along with that....see the
enclosed link.

Subject: DEFAULT-NEWORK , DEFAULT-GATEWAY - STATIC ROUTES

Hi
  Can some one please let me know if IP used with
default-network/default-gateway is going to be used to "route" packets to
unknown destinations ?
   
  Or is it just for the data generated by the router itself ( not the thru
the box traffic )
   
  does it sit in the routing table ?
   
  ip default-network 171.23.45.212
   
  If I have the above configured, and when a packet with no route to
destination comes, will it be forwarded to 171.23.45.212 ? what will happen
when default-gateway is configured ?
   
  Thanks
  Kal
