The
/etc/dgateways
file in the root volume is the configuration database for the
routed
daemon. From the routers that
routed
has determined to be alive,
routed
selects the one with the highest preference to be the default router. When the filer
cannot find an explicit route for a packet, it routes the packet to the default router.
