The discussion was not how the routers/switches were going to do it but how would are FreeBSD servers no what route to take out. Would the FreeBSD servers have to run routed or some other routing based deamon to know what there gateway route is? In theory we should not have to set a default route on this network for any of our machines. Can anyone enlighten me on this kind of setup and its proper way of implimentation.
