Cirrushow to forward the traffics when there are two default routes
Hi, four interfaces are configured on our F5: two internal, one external and mgmt. There are two static default routes which the exit interface is external interface and mgmt interface respectively.
How does F5 choose the next hop based on the routing table if dns pool member IP 10.50.50.1 is not routable via internal interface as shown below? Seems there is no VRF configured for mgmt interface, don't know how F5 manage the routing table. Can someone please help advise? thanks in advance!
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
0.0.0.0 193.20.x.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 vlan_999 (external)
0.0.0.0 10.20x.20.1 0.0.0.0 UG 4096 0 0 mgmt
10.20.0.0 10.20.0.254 255.255.255.0 vlan_10 (internal-01)
10.30.0.0 10.30.0.254 255.255.255.0 vlan_30 (internal-02)
The first listed default route (GW: 193.20.x.1) will be preferred over the second listed default route (GW: 10.20x.20.1). The former is a TMM route, while the latter is a Management route. TMM routes are assigned lower metrics than Management routes and are therefore preferred.
