Routing table with multilink PPP. (Question #49)
Consider the configuration used for multilink PPP a couple of blog posts ago. With that configuration the IP routing table looks like the following
Note how there is a host route to the IP address at the far end of the multilink PPP connection. What do you need to configure to eliminate this host route that is installed by default when multilink PPP is configured?
R1#sh ip route
Codes: C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2
i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, ia - IS-IS inter area
* - candidate default, U - per-user static route, o - ODR
P - periodic downloaded static route
Gateway of last resort is not set
10.0.0.0/8 is variably subnetted, 2 subnets, 2 masks
C 10.10.10.2/32 is directly connected, Multilink1
C 10.10.10.0/24 is directly connected, Multilink1
