| May 31, 2019 at 17:27 | comment | added | dirkt | @StephenBoston: Two identical routes with same metric for the target address? That's never a good idea... the answer is usually "fix your network setup so this doesn't happen". | |
| May 31, 2019 at 17:24 | comment | added | Stephen Boston | @dirkt Interesting. This shows consistently ( 5 cycles) a different device used to route to my DNS than to my gateway. How's that? | |
| May 31, 2019 at 17:19 | comment | added | dirkt | Even better, use ip route get a.b.c.d to find out which network device the kernel will use to reach IP address a.b.c.d. This also works when the routing table isn't that obvious as in your example... | |
