User Guidelines
For routed management traffic:
1
Router entries are checked for applicable destinations.
2
The globally assigned default-gateway is consulted.
If DHCP is enabled on multiple in-band interfaces and the system learns a
different default gateway on each, the system retains the first default gateway
it learns and ignores any others. If the first default gateway is lost, the system
does not revert to an alternate default gateway until it renews its IP address.
