I have 5 providers and we get the default from all of them and full routing=
tables.
I have seen cases where if there is no default route, the traffic didn't kn=
ow where to go, even with full routes from all my providers. =20

I'm wondering how many of you who are multihomed also add default=20
routes pointing to your providers from whom you are receiving full feeds.
If so, why? If not, why not?
Thanks,
Berry
