Defining a Default Route
If IP receives a data packet with a destination address that it is unable to match in
its routing table, it looks for a default route that it can use to forward the packet.
To include a default route in the routing table, create a static route with a
destination address of 0.0.0.0. For the next-hop address, specify a router that can
forward the packet to its destination.
Defining a Static Black Hole for a Supernet
A router that advertises an aggregate route by using a supernet address to
represent multiple explicit routes must be able to discard packets that match the
supernet address, but that do not match any of the explicit routes.
For example, consider a router that advertises an aggregate route using the
supernet address 192.32.0.0/21. The supernet address represents eight specific
networks: 192.32.0.0 through 192.32.7.0. After the aggregate route has been
propagated, the router receives network traffic for each of these specific
destinations.
If the router loses connectivity to network 192.32.3.0, one of the networks in the
supernet, the router continues to forward traffic that matches destinations 0.0
through 2.0 and 4.0 through 7.0. However, the router can no longer find a
complete match in the routing table for the disconnected network, 3.0. The router
must drop all traffic destined for 192.32.3.0.
